Cork, belonged formerly to a branch of the Mac Carthys named Mac Douough, Toparchs or Princes of Duhallow, and was forfeited in 1641 by Mae Douough, the builder of the Castle, of which the " structure is behoved to be the finest [120 feet by 80] ever undertaken by an Irish chieftain." Pari. Gazetteer of Irdand, 1849. _( b ) His "beautiful character — "the best of husbands, of fathers, of masters, of friends," &c, is given in "Lodge," vol. ii, p. 265. (°) The coheirs of the Baronies of Lovel and Holland at that date (subject to its attainder in 1487) were (1) Thomas Stapleton and (2) the Earl of Abingdon ; the representatives of the two sisters (Lady Stapleton and Lady Norreys) of Francis (Lovel), Viscount Lovel, who was attainted. These two coheirs were the same as those to the Barony of Beaumont. See tabular pedigree, vol. i, p. 287, note "a," sub " Beaumont." The grantee of 1762 descended thro' his mother, Catherine Pai-ker, from Sir Philip Parker, of Erwarton, a younger brother of Henry (Parker), Lord Morley, whose issue (not that of his younger br. Philip) represents the Barony of Morley but not that of Lovel and Holland, the representation of these two Baronies (i.e., those whose titles were assigned to the grautee of 1762) never having devolved on the family of Parker. The two brothers abovenamed have, indeed, a descent from the families of Lovel and Holland thro' their great grandmother, the wife of Sir William Parker, Alice, sister and h. of Henry (Lovel), Lord Morley, da. of William (Lovel), Lord Morley (jure uxoris) which William Lovel was a younger brother of John, Lord Lovel and Holland, in whose descendants (i.e., those of his granddaughters Lady Stapleton and Lady Norreys abovenamed) was and is the representation of those Baronies as above stated. It is to be observed that it was not till the death of the cousin of the grantee of 1762, Martha, Baroness Chedworth, 30 Nov, 1775, that his son became (for he himself never did), a coheir (even) of the family of Parker, thro' whom tins descent (without representation) from Morley, Lovel and Holland was derived. Richard de Perceval, tho grantee's ancestor, living in 1161, was, however himself a, Lovel], according to the all glorifying pedigree in " the House of Yvery," indeed, possibly that authority may consider that he was a Holland also ; anyhow the rights of his decendauts (as therein set forth) are too vast to be fathomed and the grantee may have flattered himself that ho was entitled to a grant of these two Baronies as heir male of the house of Lovell, and (</ possible) of that of Holland also.
