Farney, Monaghan

Farney, Monaghan

Farney is an Barony in County Monaghan.

The area has claim to the site of the Battle of Achadh Leithdheirg, in 331.

The area around Lough Ooney was originally called Fernmag or Fer Fernmaighe (Farney). [http://www.magoo.com/hugh/mcmahon.html A McGough—McMahon Connection?] which means the disputed battle site is actually in the Dartrey Barony or kingdom of Dartraige Con-innsi
