    century saw the building of fortifications in the region. Any fear of further 
    Anglo-Norman expansion in Inishowen and Derry, however, was halted by the 
    murder of Earl William de Burgh in 1333, and the absenteeism of his heirs 
    kept the path open for Gaelic dominance in the region. It was perhaps during 
    this time the Ó Dochartaigh began to make inroads into Inishowen, as chieftains 
    under O'Donnell. </P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/BEEBED9E-3409-4D4F-A320-7CFF08A395D9/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
