Dunbar (Inishowen)
|
Hussey de Burgh noted that the late George Dunbar, of Donaghadee, County Down, had owned over 5200 acres in County Donegal as well as land in five other Ulster counties. At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, in the 1850s, he was among the principal lessors in the parishes of Clonca and Moville Lower, barony of Inishowen East. The Dunbar family had originally come from Scotland. George Dunbar (born Orr) assumed the name Dunbar on inheriting his maternal grandfather’s property
