Story of Ulster Plantation and the "Earl of Essex" Walter Devereaux:
|
:"Plans to establish an English colony in Ulster were not, however, abandoned In 1573, Walter Devereux, Earl of Essex received a grant of land in north east Ireland from Queen Elizabeth. Essex agreed to invest his own money in his colonial project but his ambitions were wider as he envisaged taking control of an extensive territory from Belfast to Coleraine and establishing himself as Captain General of Ulster . Essex recruited 400 adventurers for his colony but only a small number of them travelled to Ireland and Essex spent most of his time in the province engaged in military encounters with Gaelic lords opposed to his plans. Frustrated by his lack of progress, Essex in 1574 seized Sir Brian MacPhelim O'Neill, his wife and brother and arranged for their execution in Dublin Castle . The following year, aware of the Queen’s increasing impatience with his failure, Essex authorised a notorious raid on the Scottish settlement on Rathlin Island by John Norris and Francis Drake. Shortly afterwards, the Queen relieved Essex of his command in Ulster" |
It is through Hawise de Kevelioc's marriage to Warin de Bostock that we become related to the direct descendents of Charlemagne.
