The story of the Knight of Glin refusing to leave the house is well known in the area, and was told to me by the current Knight of Glinn himself a few years ago. I think it is justified in staying in the article, as an illustration of local folklore, but needs to be flagged as such. Mark ( talk) 15:06, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
As charming as the IRA story is, I imagine it is exaggerated. I'm sure the basis of it is recorded somewhere though. --

Just to add a little more bloat, it appears there were male descendants of the 24th Knight of Glin in Ogdensburg, NY up through at least 1954, and some may still be alive today. Whether this is the senior line I do not know, but it is unlikely that the 28th Knight is the last. Choess ( talk) 02:05, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
The "bloat" mentioned above appears to also occur with " John FitzGerald, 1st Baron Desmond, of Shanid, County Limerick, Lord of Connelloe and Decies, married (first) Margery, daughter and heir of Sir Thomas Fitz-Anthony, Lord of Decies and Desmond. These domains were confirmed to him by Edward, the Black Prince in 1260." When clearly, King Henry III of England was on that throne and the Black Prince was a century later!?

The body of the article talks about "Desmond FitzJohn Lloyd Fitzgerald" being the 27th Knight, yet the list with pictures shows him to be the 24th. I would suspect that they should align one way or the other. — billinghurst sDrewth 12:53, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
The link goes to the O'Connor Don, which is not the same family as the O'Connor Kerry. Different heraldic symbol. 88.97.108.45 ( talk) 09:47, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
