Important Genealogical & Legal Archive Mahony or O'Mahony, Kerry & Wicklow: A large and extremely important collection of genealogical and legal documents and of political and personal correspondence relating to the Mahony or O'Mahony family and to estates in Cos Kerry and Wicklow. The O'Mahonys were one of the principal Gaelic Septs of West Munster. In the 18th century they produced some distinguished soldiers in the Irish Brigade in the service of France, especially Count Daniel O'Mahony, hero of the defence of Cremona in 1702. In later times John O'Mahony was a leader of the Fenian Brotherhood and Sylvester Mahony ("Father Prout") a well-known poet. The branch that generated this archive used the Christian name Pierce or Peirce in five successive generations: 1. Peirce Mahony (1750-1819) was manager of the Earl of Devon's estates in Co Limerick. 2. Peirce Mahony of Kilmorna, Co Kerry (1792-1853) established a highly successful firm of solicitors in Dublin in partnership with his brother David ("Peirce did all the talking and David did all the work"). He was Daniel O'Connell's private solicitor, playing an important part in the campaign for Catholic Emancipation (1829) and in the defence of O'Connell and his colleagues in the State Trials of 1843-44. David Mahony bought Grange Con in Co Wicklow, which became another of the family seats. 3. Peirce Kenifeck Mahony of Kilmorna (1817-1850) married Jane Gun Cuninghame, who after his death married secondly Colonel W.H. Vicars; they were the parents of Sir Arthur Vicars, Ulster King of Arms. Peirce's younger brother David inherited Grange Con; he developed the gardens there and was also a keen hunting man. 4. Peirce Charles de Lacy O'Mahony of Grange Con (1844-1930), nationalist politician and philanthropist, "was remarkable in having had successively three names, two wives and three faiths, and for being honoured by the kings of two opposing countries in World War I" (Wikipedia). An ardent home ruler, he courageously supported Parnell during the O'Shea divorce scandal. In 1904 he opened an orphanage in Bulgaria. In his later years he styled himself The O Mahony of Kerry and resided on his estate in Wicklow, where he lived as an Irish chieftain, attired in saffron kilt and accompanied by wolfhounds and bagpipers. 5. Peirce Gun Mahony of Kilmurry, co Kerry (1873-1914) assisted in the genealogical work of his uncle Sir Arthur Vicars and bore the title Cork Herald. He died in a shooting accident at Grange Con in 1914. His younger brother Dermot Gun O'Mahony (1881-1960) was a pioneering farmer in Patagonia and later lived at Grange Con, where he was succeeded by his elder daughter Patricia and her husband Lt Col Richard K. Page. This Archive contains briefly, · Printed briefs compiled in connection with the Irish State Trials of 1843-44. Alarmed by the success of O'Connell's "monster meetings" in his campaign for the repeal of the Act of Union, the government banned his proposed meeting at Clontarf. Fearful of provoking bloodshed, O'Connell cancelled the meeting. He was arrested, charged with conspiracy, sentenced to three months' imprisonment and fined £2,000. He was ably defended by his solicitor Peirce Mahony. Although the House of Lords quashed the conviction and criticised the unfairness of the trial, O'Connell's perceived meekness severely damaged the effectiveness of the repeal campaign. The briefs give details of previous "monster meetings" and of the legal proceedings against O'Connell and his associates. · Printed volume in original paper wrappers entitled The Irish State Trials 1843-44.
