Lurg (from Irish Lorg 'mark, trail or track'[1] barony situated in the north of County Fermanagh , Northern Ireland .[2] Lower Lough Erne , and it is bordered by four other baronies in Northern Ireland: Magheraboy to the south; Tirkennedy to the south-east; Omagh West to the north; and Omagh East to the east.[2] Tirhugh in the Republic of Ireland .
History [ edit ]
The barony of Lurg is based on the ancient Irish territory of Tuath Luirg , also known as Fir Luirg (the men of Lurg),[3] Airgialla .[1] Irish : Ó Maoldúin ). It is listed in the Annals, under the name Lorg , as being a kingdom in the year 1039.[1] [3]
Prior to this, Lurg was the base of the O'Monaghan (Irish : Ó Manacháin ), thought to be descended from the original inhabitants of the area, the Fir Manach , from which County Fermanagh gets its name.[4] [5]
According to 19th century genealogist John O'Hart , the barony was also home to the Muintir Taithligh "chiefs of Hy-Laoghaire, of Lough Lir, a district which lay in the barony of Lurg, near Lough Erne , towards Tyrone."[6]
O'Hart also notes that the lord of Lurg in A.D. 924, Fergus MacDuilgen, is listed in the Annals of the Four Masters , although not chronicled in the lists of families and clans of the scholar poet Seán Mór Ó Dubhagáin .[6]
