RichardII de Bermingham , Anglo Irish lord, died 1580. Richard had one of the longest terms as lord, but it was during these years that Athenry came to decline. The succession crisis of the second Earl of Clanricarde and the subsequent Mac an Iarla wars, devastate his lordship, to the point where he admitted to Sir Henry Sidney that though his was the oldest Anglo Irish lordship in Connacht , he and his people were reduced to penury. Two of the worst events were the 1572 Sack of Athenry and its destruction by Aodh mac Maghnusa Domhnaill in 1577. While in the 1540s there were above three hundred prosperous houses in the town, there were by the 1570s less than forty, now of quality and many of their inhabitants ready to leave. In response to the unrest, Richard permanently shifted the location of the lordship to Dunmore , at the northern extent of his rule. The family would be based in the area henceforth, though still owning land and property in Athenry and its environs. Richard died in 1580 but was so insignificant that his death is not reported in the annals. start box succession box before John de Bermingham title Baron Athenry after Edmond I de Bermingham years 1547 1580 end box References History of Galway , James Hardiman , Galway , 1820 The Abbey of Athenry , Martin J.
