}}O'Dwyer (Irish: Ó Dubhuir), also known as Dwyer or Dwyre is an Irish Gaelic clan based most prominently in what is today County Tipperary. Their name means "dark coloured", in reference to their progenitor Dubhuir mac Spealáin's hair colour.[3] The paternal ancestors of the clan are of the Laigin, specifically, Cairbre Cluichechair, who was the son of Cú Corb, King of Leinster (himself the son of High King, Conchobar Abradruad).[4][5] Their ancestor Cairbre Cluichechair moved into Munster, founding the Dál Cairbre Aradh[6] at an early stage. The O'Dwyers eventually emerged at Kilnamanagh as local lords in the High to Late Middle Ages, but they are not referenced by name as significant in the Annals of the Four Masters until the 15th century.[7]

Along with the O'Carroll of Éile, the O'Kennedy of Ormond and the Mulryan of Owney, the O'Dwyers of Kilnamanagh were one of a cluster of regional Gaelic clan powers in the High Middle Ages in the area of what would one day become County Tipperary who held out against Anglicisation with the arrival of the Lordship of Ireland. They interplayed with newer Norman arrivals on their borders who became significant powers, especially the Butler Earls of Ormond. Clan members Philip O'Dwyer and Anthony O'Dwyer captured the Rock of Cashel in 1641 during the Irish Rebellion of 1641. Subsquently, following the Cromwellian War in Ireland, the clan were punished and dispossed of much of their land under the Act for the Settlement of Ireland 1652. Some were removed to County Clare, while others chose exile as Wild Geese on the European Continent. A significant number of O'Dwyer men found service in armies of Bourbon France, Habsburg Austria (including General John O'Dwyer, Governor of Belgrade) and even Romanov Russia (providing an Admiral).[8]

Castles

In Kilnamanagh, the O'Dwyer built several castles, as part of their attempt to defend their lands. Today all of these castles are in ruin, but some of their remains can be seen in County Tipperary. Most were destroyed during the 17th century and all of them were confiscated during the times of Oliver Cromwell. These include Ballysheeda Castle, Ballagh Castle, Clonyharp Castle, Drumbane Castle, Dundrum Castle (now the location of the 18th century Dumdrum House Hotel), Graigone Castle, Killenure Castle (still largely intact) and Milltown Castle.[9][10]
