MULLAGHBRACK, a parish,
partly in the baronies of ONEILLAND WEST and LOWER ORIOR, but chiefly in
the barony of LOWER FEWS, county of ARMAGH, and province of ULSTER;
containing, with the district parish of Kilcluney, the post-town of
Market-hill, and the village of Hamilton's-Bawn (all of which are
separately described), 16,099 inhabitants, of which number, 7627 are in
the district parish of Kilcluney. This parish is of great antiquity;
mention is made of it in Pope Nicholas's Taxation in 1291, at which time
the rectory and several townlands belonged to the Colidei, or Culdees,
of Armagh. At the plantation of Ulster, James I. granted 1000 acres of
land here and the manor of Coolemalish to H. Acheson, Esq., who built a
stone bawn at Carrickbane, 140 feet long and 80 feet wide, defended at
the angles by four towers; and settled there 19 Scottish families, who,
with their servants and retainers, furnished 30 armed men for the
service of the king. Soon after, Sir James Douglas obtained a grant of
2000 acres and the manor of Cloncarney, on which his successor, Sir
Archibald Acheson, built a strong castle and placed 36 British families,
who furnished 148 armed men. He also built a town round his castle of
Cloncarney, in which he placed 30 more British families, who provided 30
soldiers for the king. This town was the origin of the present
flourishing town of Markethill, and the family of the Achesons were
ancestors of its present proprietor, the Earl of Gosford. |
