The Cantred of Gowran in Co. Kilkenny in the south - west of Southern Leinster, which had been the fortress of the Heremonian Ui Laoghaire Ui Connla Ossory Kings, was to be given over eventually to Theobold Fitz Walter / Le Buitleir - the butler, who was to become the ancestor of the English Earls of Ormonde. This occurred when the territories of the Irish Families there in Southern Leinster, that had previously been taken over by Strongbow after the Anglo - Norman Invasion, were split up. In 1328 AD the main branch of the family became the English Earls of Ormonde, and in 1515 the English Earls of Ossory and in 1632 the Dukes of Ormonde in Co.

A family branch also Gaelicized their name as Mac Pierce, which see. Their main branch came into greater prominence in 1328 when James, the son of Edmund Le Buitleir, became first English Earl of Ormonde.

In 1461 John, the son of James the fourth Earl, became the sixth Earl of Ormonde and in 1477 Thomas, another son of James the fourth Earl also, became the seventh Earl of Ormond. Their direct male line then changed after this when in 1515 Piers Butler the great - great - grandson of James the third Earl became the first Earl of Ossory and then the eighth Earl of Ormonde. In 1539 James, the son of Pierce the eighth Earl, became the ninth Earl of Ormonde and the second Earl of Ossory. In 1546 Thomas, the son of James the ninth Earl, became the tenth Earl of Ormonde and the third Earl of Ossory and in 1614 Walter, the grandson of James the ninth Earl, became the eleventh Earl of Ormonde.
