last of the Gaelic Milesian
Irish titled
Chieftains from the
Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern"
Ui Niaill
Septs in the
Ulster Province,
died this year at Simancas
in Spain, and because of his
great commitment to the Irish Cause he was to be interred in the
Church of
San Pietro di
Montorio in
Rome.
The English Ascendancy system whereby the English Crown controlled the ward ships of minors entitled to any property, at their discretion, was also used now in the further seizures and confiscations of Irish land, and was to be a great revenue earner for James 1st the first Stuart English King and this further greedy grab for the legacy of Juveniles in Ireland really upset the Anglo - Irish / Old English.
At this time there was still an Irish Catholic church
surviving
at Dromore West in
Co. Sligo in the north - west of the
Connacht Province, which is now only a ruin.
1617 AD Teague O Higgins / Tadhg O h lUiginn who was from the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Niaill Cenel nEogain whose Sept had since migrated to the Connacht Province and was now situated in Co. Sligo in the north west of Connacht and Eochy / Eochaidh O Leoghasa from Co. Fermanagh in the south - west of the Ulster Province nearby, were 2 of the present great Irish poets.
The
Gaelic
Celts in the Highlands of
Scotland and the
Gaelic Celts in
Ireland were
also still
united
at this period in time.
As further English Ascendancy foreign non - Catholic "plantations" occurred in the confiscated Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Niaill territories in the Ulster Province where the merchants from the English Skinners Company, built a castle this year against the surviving surrounding Irish Septs at Dingiven in Co. Derry in the north - east of the Ulster Province in the previous kingdom and territory of the O Canes / Kanes / Ui Cahans from the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Niaill Cenel nEogain Sept,

had stood up to the English onslaught and was now in Spain became the Count of Beare
Haven when installed by
Philip
111
the King
of Spain, which upset
James
1st
the Stuart
English King, no end.
1618 AD Due to the great amount of Irish territories that had now been confiscated by the English, leases and sub - leases of Irish land were now increasing even to the Mere Irish themselves, although it was against English Law, as the Irish continued to always drift back to their original ancestral territory that previously belonged to their individual Septs, as the Lowland Presbyterian planters and the English Episcopalian Church of England "planters" found they really needed the Irish to have any chance of making use of all of their recently confiscated Irish land, even though fines were being levied against them for doing so. James 1st the Stuart English King this year also granted the town of Derry in Co. Derry in the north - east of the Ulster Province to the newly formed English - Irish Society who began the construction of a town there and encircled it with walls one mile around and with 7 gates to keep the Irish Septs in that region surrounding Derry out of there altogether.
Malcolm Hamilton, one of James 1st's Ascendancy Undertakers, constructed a castle at Monea in Co. Fermanagh in the south - west of the Ulster Province, against the surrounding Irish Septs there.

David Rothe was to become the Anglo - Irish Catholic Bishop of Ossory / Co. Kilkenny in the south - west of Southern Leinster until 1650 AD.
1619 AD James 1st, the Stuart English King, who was to be well known for his avarice and greed,"" was continuing to sell English Baronies for money.
Adam Loftus, a nephew of the Ascendancy Episcopalian Church of England Archbishop in Dublin, was appointed by James 1st the Stuart English King to be the English Chancellor in Ireland, a position which he was to hold until 1629 AD when he was to then become the English Lord Justice in overall control in Ireland with Richard Boyle the English 1st Earl of Cork.
25' high walls that were constructed around the City of Derry in Co. Derry in the north - east of the Ulster Province, to keep the Irish Septs out, were completed, and are still there today, and Crom Castle was also constructed at Newtown Butler in Co Fermanagh in the south - west of Ulster 5 miles to the west on the Upper Loch Erne, by the foreign "planters" there against the recently displaced Irish Families in that region, and Salter's Castle was also constructed on Loch Neagh to the south of Ballyronan in Co. Derry for the same reason, and the ruins are still there to be seen with Castle Upton at Templepatrick in Co. Antrim in the north - east of Ulster was also constructed this year for the same purpose.

Thomas

later to become the English
Earl of Strafford and
English appointed Lord Deputy in Ireland,
under
James 1st's even more "greedy"
son,
Charles 1st, at this time was
able to purchase all of the available
confiscated country between
Tinahely
in
Co. Wicklow
and
Shillelagh
in the south - east of
Southern
Leinster,
and was to last visit the area 20 years later on in
1639 AD.
1620 AD Although there were now 2,500,000 Irish confiscated acres in the hands of 2,000 foreign AScendancy planters in 3 of the Irish Provinces, there was still only 1 Parish out of 6 that had an Acscendancy Church of England / Ireland minister in them, and in the meantime the Lords of the Isles, the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Colla Uais Irish Scottish Mac Donnells / Mac Donalds who had their Estates in Co. Antrim in the north - east of the Ulster Province had caused a Catholic revival there.
Co. Wexford in the south - east of Southern Leinster had by now been successfully English Ascendancy "planted," while Co. Leitrim in Northern Connacht and Co. Longford nearby in the north - east of Northern Leinster were not going along as well as James 1st the Stuart English had first planned.
Meanwhile, the Heberian Cianacht O Carrolls of Ely who had Birr Castle in their kingdom and territory in Co. Offaly in the north - west of Southern Leinster were also "outlawed," and the territory of the Chief of Ely O Carroll were also confiscated and granted to Sir William - Lawrence Parsons the English foreign Ascendancy planter Undertaker, and all of this continuing repression and confiscation by the English AScendancy Government under James 1st only further united the Old English / Anglo - Irish with the Mere Irish who were both by now being more and more effected in their two most common causes of both religion and land.
Turlough Mac Coghlan was the Heberian Dal gCais Chief of Delvin who had his territory and kingdom in Co. Offaly in Southern Leinster who was the son of John Oge - the Younger Mac Coghlan who had been the last Prince / Tanaiste of Delvin.
