 The Flight Of The Earls.Net - By Dr. John McCavitt FRHistS
Included also are rubbings (and translations) of the tombstones in Rome of the earl of Tyrconnell and Hugh O’Neill, baron of Dungannon, son of the earl of Tyrone.
The earl of Tyrone's forces had killed Chichester's brother during the Nine Years War, Sir Arthur Chichester vowing to wreak personal revenge by beheading Tyrone.
Overall, the story of the Flight of the Earls is a tale of epic proportions, an enthralling and momentous episode in the history of Ireland and the wider world that has lost none of its drama and appeal in the passage of time.

 O Neill the most illustrious among the surnames of Ireland
From the fifth to the eleventh century, and from the twelfth century to the death of Red Hugh O Neill in 1608, this dominant family were monarchs of all Ireland, kings of Ulster, earls and princes of Tyrone, statesmen and soldiers.
When Hugh O Neill, Earl of Tyrone, and O Donnell, Earl of Tirconnell, fled to Europe, they left Ulster open to the Protestant plantations of James I, contributing to the continuing conflict in this area of Ulster, which remained British when the rest of Ireland became independent.
Conn: his son, as Prince of Ulster, of Tyrone, etc.; married, in 1483, Elinora (died 1497), daughter of Thomas (the 7th Earl), the son of John Cam, the 6th Earl of Kildare; and had by her issue: I. Conn Baccach; II.

 Hugh O'Neill Earl of Tyrone
In the parliament of 1585 (413), which he attended as baron of Dungannon, he was made earl of Tyrone in succession to his (reputed) grandfather Conn Bacach; and in 1587 the queen granted him the inheritance; but he was to give up 240 acres on the Blackwater as a site for a fort.
Not long after this the earl and Mabel Bagenal, sister of Sir Henry Bagenal marshal of Ireland, fell in love with each other and wished to be married.
But his movements were now considered suspicious; he was continually drilling men; and he brought home vast quantities of lead to roof his new house at Dungannon, which it was reported was not intended for roofs but for bullets.

 MANIMAL-Annual-1984-Michael D. Roberts
There probably are as many ways for an actor to make it from the east coast to Hollywood as there are actors trying to make the move.
Michael D. Roberts, who stars as Tyrone "Ty" Earl in "Manimal", traversed the 3,000 miles from New York in a meat packaging truck!
The trip began when Michael was age 10 and was occasioned by the fact that his mother had married the manager of the Four Star Meat Packing Company, who was sending a shipment of meat to California.
