I have already dealt with the history of this parish ; seeJotr~naE, Vo., JI., No. 3.t A townland in the district cf Clanna hillip, or Terinon, at the westernextremity of Killinkere Parish. ~1anna~Philli~. as I have shown elsewhere,was an O'Reilly settlement, and was often adopted as an akas for Xillinkere.: Maghcradoone, usually abbreviated to Maghera, a district comprisingabout half a dozen townlands, and c-xtending along the eastern shore of LochRamor in the south-east af Lurgan parish. matatpe nGn = the plain ofthe forts. Dan was the term applied to a fortified residence. %ems--GynmmalicaCellica-glosses it " firmus, fortis." The tern1 is found in all Celticlanguages as well as in Latin ; it is the Welsh Din occurring in many of theplacenames of Wales. Cf. dunutn in the early Latin names cf cities.The monastery of Kells had extensive property in Magheradoone. In1542 it was reported that " four messuages, sixty acres of arable, four ofmeadow, two of wood, and fourteen of pasture, with the appurtenances, inblaghlendonc " belonged to the Monastery of Xells. Messecage is a Latinterm meaning a il~vellinghouse with offices and lands attached, for the householduses of those who had care of the property. lhe Ra:ulinson MS. has:" Eight polls of land called Magheryndowne belonging to thc said Abbey ofKcUs. This Monastery lands is in the tenure of Capten (sic) Gerott Flemingeby force of Lettres pattents [i.e. letters patent] of fee farme." The DownSuyrey has " Maheridowne," and in this form the name is still locally remembered.In 1639 the property of Kells monastery wa4 confiscated including,inter din, " Maghelendon, now in Cavam County "--Pnlenl Rolls, G James I.It then passed into the possession of Garret Fleming of Cabragh, in EnniskeenParish. The church which served the district of Magheradoone in pre-Reformationtimes was on an island in Loch Ramor. A causeway connecting thisisland with the mainland can still be traced. The church in shown, in ruins,on the 1609 map.5 Moybolge, now united with Kilmainbamwood. " Moybalgne contayning4 polls lyeinge neere the ~arish church of Noybogne the rectory is appropriateto the said Abbay o Kdls "-Rarulinson MS. According to the latterauthority an annual fair was held at Moybolge on St. Patrick's Day, thefeast day of the Parish. An entry in the Daavy of Friar 'furlough O'Mellan,dated September, 1646, refers to the fact that the English of the Northattacked the people of Oirghialla (Oriel), drove them to the woo& of Drumduin(Drumgoon), burned the houses and haggards up to the woods of Killann(c1l.t Anna), and plundered the district of Moybolge (mu15e 001~;). I haveakeady detailed the parochial history of Moybolge in this slwrnul.

Early,,forms of this parish title are : " Drumiguyn "-Papal Registers, 1427 ; Droumdone "-Elizabethan Fianls, 1586 ; " Dromgawney"--Rarulinson MS. ; " Drumdoon "-1 609 map ; " Drumdoon "-Friar O'Mellan's Diary of the wars of 1646. Elsewhere I have suggested thatQyurm 'Oh rather than 'Oyurmgam~n, which Joyce advances, is most likelythe correct Gaelic form of the name.In the Libsr Angeli, in the Book of A rmaglr, a treatise dcfining the prerogativesAnd privileges of the See of Armagh, the diocesan jurisdiction-distinguishedfrom the primatinl jurisdiction which extended over the ,entirecountry-is defined as follows :Idcirco constituitur terminus a Domino vastissimns urbi Alti Mache,quain dilexisti prae omniblls Hiberncnsiutn telluribus, id est a PznrzaMonlis Berbrczs usque ad Monbm Mas, a Monte Mis usque ad Bri Evigtusque ad Dorsos Breg.The geographical limits here specified are Bean Muilt (benn = pinna montis ;muill --
