This article highlights an obscure lineage associated with the Irish church, the Uí Mhaoir (O’Meere/Meer) of Drumcliff parish, one of the Gaelic learned lineages who served as a unique caste of hereditary literati and guardians of customary law and tradition. This article was first published in The Other Clare vol. 35 (2011). Clare County Library is grateful to Luke McInerney for donating this article to this website.
