It is really something to sing and dance about.
Dig up those old bones and get them dancing!

Change the two party system
so people against something like abortion
but for something like environmental protection never again get bigger and badder storms
and two bankrupting wars instead.

Burgh 3: Bourke of Clanmories, Burgh Burke or Bourke of Clanricarde , Bourke De Burgh of St. Albans
The early generations still have to be researched.
Sir Ulick de Burgh of Clanricarde a 1324

Space for your banner!

1. ?? de Burgh Have omitted several generations. It is noted that a Ulick is identified by TCP as the great-grandfather of the below-mentioned Sir Ulick who died in 1541. He may have been the husband of Eustacia Fitzgerald dau of Gerald, 8th Earl of Kildare. TCP reports that the second wife of the 1st Earl was sister of the latter Sir Ulick and daughter of ...
A. Richard Oge MacWilliam of Clanrickard d 1519
i. Sir Ulick Bourke or De Burgh, 'the MacWilliam' d 1541
ii. Honora Bourke
m div Ulick Bourke or de Burgh, Governor of Connaught, 1st Earl of Clanricarde d 19 Oct 1544 below
B. ?? de Burgh
i. Richard Bourke or de Burgh 'MacWilliam' d 04.1530
Richard is identified by TCP as father of the 1st Earl and cousin of the above Sir Ulick Bourke. BP1870 suggests that the father of the 1st Earl was called Ulick but that mistake may have arisen because the Earl succeeded Ulick as Chief of the MacWilliams.
m _ Butler
TCP Clanricarde identifies the 1st Earl's mother as Margaret, dau of Piers Butler, Earl of Ormond & Ossory, but with an indication that such is not certain, reporting that some sources identify her as a dau of _ O'Maden though noting that such a marriage took place in the 14th century. TCP does report that the Earl "was certainly allied, through his mother, to the Butlers". However, Margaret Butler is identified in TCP Upper Ossory as wife of Thomas Fitzgerald then Barnaby FitzPatrick who married again after her. We suspect that Richard's wife was a sister or cousin of that Margaret.

m1 div Grace or Grany O'Caroll dau of Maolrona O'Carroll, 'prince of Ely'

Richard had a number of relationships, some of which are sometimes shown as formalised in marriage.
m1 1548, div Margaret O'Brien dau of Murrough O'Brien, 1st Earl of Thomond
A Ulick Bourke or de Burgh, 3rd Earl of Clanricarde d 20 May 1601
TCP Clanricarde shows just the following Honora Burke as a wife. It mentions that Margaret, daughter of Richard FitzAlan, Earl of Arundel, is sometimes identified as one of his wives but no such earl existed in the 16th century.

2 John Bourke, 9th Earl of Clanricarde b 1642, d 17 Oct 1722
The Earl was outlawed and attainted for his support of the Jacobite Rebellion but the title was later restored albeit with some constraints that led to the restriction of its inheritance which appears to have led to its extinction in the late 19th century.
