Links to images
[edit]Unfortunately, the image IDs of the photos from Clare County Library seem to change every time you access the site, so I have had to link to the search page instead, and indicate which thumbnail the reader should click on. If anybody knows a way to work around this, I would be glad to hear it. Scolaire (talk) 19:20, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Done. Image added. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 14:37, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
- I'm a bit puzzled by this. The two images seem to have come from the identical web page. How could the first one have had copyvio issues?
- An additional problem: the web page says nothing about Ballymarkahan, and the coordinates are different from the ones in this article. They appear to be two different (though similar) castles. Scolaire (talk) 19:27, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
- I can answer the first part. I said "likely" as the user had uploaded copyvio images before and it clearly wasn't a photo he had taken himself. So I removed it as "disputed" by me. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:18, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
...and then added the identical image from the same web page with a different file name. I'm still puzzled.Okay, I've found the dialogue at User talk:Acj1, so I can see that this page just got in the path of an ongoing dispute. Anyway, Kilkishen is 6km from Ballymarkahan (see Google Maps), so I'm removing the image again. Scolaire (talk) 12:17, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
MacMeyrcheyn family
[edit]Ballymarkahan from Baile Uí Mharcacháin, is likely from Murchadhan (Murchan being a contraction), however in the parish is given of Clonea the synonym Muireacan is found (as in Baile-Ui-Mhuireagain), this family in 17th century is called Morgan.
"[8 July, 1411] To the dean of Killaloe. Mandate to collate and assign to Matthew Macmeyrcheyn, perpetual beneficiary in the parish church of Cuyngkyg [sic Quin], in the said diocese, of ducal race and in his nineteenth year only, if found fit in Latin, the perpetual vicarage, value not exceeding 3 marks, of Killmaliery [sic Kilmaleery] in the same diocese, void because Thady Macconnyl has held it more than a year without having himself ordained a priest and without dispensation; notwithstanding that he holds his perpetual benefice in the said parish church, and another in that of Bunraythi [sic Bunratty] in the same diocese, both without cure and called rectories, the value of which likewise does not exceed 3 marks. He is hereby dispensed, on account of his said defect of age, to hold the vicarage.
