Clancarty, earldom held by the
MacCarthys of Muskerry.
Donough MacCarthy (1594–1665), Viscount Muskerry, combined Gaelic descent with
Old English politics, supporting
Ormond (his brother‐in‐law) in the
Confederation of Kilkenny and opposing
Rinuccini. Created earl of Clancarty in 1658, he regained his estate at the
Restoration. He was predeceased by his eldest son
Cormac, killed serving alongside the future
James II at the naval battle of Lowestoft (1665) and interred at Westminster abbey. When Cormac's son Charles, the 2nd earl, died in 1666, Donough's second son
Callaghan (d. 1676) abandoned a career in a French monastery to become 3rd earl and, for a time, a Protestant.
Donough (1668–1734), the 4th earl, fought for James II in the
Williamite War and fled to the
Jacobite court after escaping from the Tower of London in 1694. In 1698 he returned to England to strengthen his position by consummating his marriage with Elizabeth, daughter of the earl of Sunderland, whom he had married in 1684 through the agency of his uncle Justin
MacCarthy. He was arrested but subsequently allowed to live abroad on a pension.
Robert (1685–1769), styled 5th earl despite his father's attainder, served as a naval officer and governor of Newfoundland 1733–5, and was a close associate of Sarah, duchess of Marlborough. He caused an outcry by petitioning in 1735 for the restoration of the family estates, before going to France around 1741 to join the Jacobite court.
