Glenconkeyne

Glenconkeyne formed the western portion of the former barony of Loughinsholin in Mid Ulster, with the ancient districts of Clandonnell, Killetra, and Tomlagh comprising the rest.

[4] Local legends allegedly state that Glenconkeyne was a gift of Brian Carrach O'Neill to Cadhan O'Henry for defeating a monstrous hound that was terrorising the region, however the scholar John O'Donovan states that across the country many things appeared to be attributed to an areas last lord, as Brian Carrach O'Neill in this case was.

[5] Brian Carrach O'Neill would build a residence near the border of the parishes of Kilcronaghan and Ballynascreen, which became known as Dún Tí Bhriain, preserved as the name of the modern townland of Duntibryan.

In 1821, John MacCloskey, in his Statistical Reports of Six Derry Parishes, states Tobermore as being the capital settlement of Glenconkeine.

[3] Excluding the church lands, the townlands are thus given in the form provided in the Charter of Londonderry with the modern name if known given afterwards in brackets.
