These O'Callaghans were transplanted by Cromwell to "Mount Allen" in Co Clare (O'Callaghan's Mills) and their lands handed over to an officer, named "Sir Richard Kyrle", who was supposed to have cut down the trees, and to have erected "Iron Works" at Clonmeen. Kyrle Quay in Cork City bears his name.
The last local descendant of these O'Callaghans, "Mr Robert O'Callaghan" of Gortmore, Banteer, once a wealthy, landed gentleman, died in poor circumstances a year ago, and is buried in another O'Callaghan tomb in Clonmeen Graveyard.
