It was established in 1172 by Dermot Cormac McCarthy. The location has been confused with AbbeyMahon although records and foundations exist to place it at Carrigillihy.WendySnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503689522096376739.post-46323272845257514522012-05-20T10:24:58.708+01:002012-05-20T10:24:58.708+01:00Two minor points:

Chippenham (in 'Marshal country', much like the connections between Tintern Parva and Major, which is in Wales).<br /><br />2. There is a question over the fact that the medieval boundaries of Ossory diocese which included Duiske within it. When the cemetery at the site of the Abbey was consecrated c.1204 the document attesting to it shows that Hugh le Roux (then Bishop of Ossory), had given permission for the Bishop of Ferns, Albin, to do this in his absence.<br /><br />As early as 1228 the Bishop of Leighlin also formally renounced all claims over any possessions of the Abbey (a result of the suppression of Kilenny). <br /><br />Charters between 1245 until 1513 all place the Abbey and its lands in Ossory, including the taxation of 1318.<br /><br />Confusion could have arisen as the secular parish of what is now known as Graigue were not in the same diocese and there is a 1401 document that could indicate this, describing the boundaries of the two, though it is sad not very legible.<br /><br />With my kind regards,<br /><br />Arnaud.
