Extracted
Irish Historical Notes:
"The sept of
O Mainnin was located in the barony of Tiaquin, Co. Galway, their
chief's residence being the castle of Clogher. They were an
important sept in the Hy Many country but were not of that group
by descent, as their ancestors were the ancient pre-Gaelic
Pictish rulers of that area.
Their territory
was much reduced by the O'Kellys, and their estates were largely
lost in the C17th confiscations, but the Mannions (as they are
called in Connacht) remained in their homeland where they are
numerous today. The name has also been anglicized Manning: Cornet
John Manning of O'Neills Dragoons in King James II's Irish Army
was an O'Mannin. Manning, of course, is a fairly common name in
England, and some of the Mannings of Dublin and Cork are of
English descent. Frederick Maning (1812-1883), who became a Maori
chief in New Zealand, was from Dublin."
