Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Religious History of Ireland: Primitive, Papal and Protestant Including the Evangelical Missions, Catholic Agitations, and Church Progress of the Last Half-Century
Dr. Keating, coming down to his own times, says: There is one Spencer, a writer of a Chronicle, ' who dared to assert that an English King, Edgar, had jurisdiction in Ireland. But what is most surprising in this audacious writer is, that he should under take to fix the genealogies of many of the gentry of Ireland, and to pretend to derive them originally from an English extraction.'
