Inchiquin Collection


The Inchiquin Collection relates to the Dromoland branch of the O’Brien’s, an ancient Clare family. As well as being descendants of Brian Boroimhe, the Dromoland branch of the O’Brien family can also claim descent from the ancient royal families of both England and Scotland, and have family connections with the present royal family of Britain. The Collection consists of deeds relating to property for the most part, including leases, resettlements of estates, appointments of attorney, receipts, disentailing deeds and marriage settlements. The documents span over a century, dating from 1854 to 1954, and reflect the land transactions of several members of the O’Brien family.
