The siege of Tory Island took place in 1608 during O'Doherty's Rebellion when some of the remaining rebels made a last stand against Crown forces on Tory Island off the northern coast of Ireland. Following their defeat at the Battle of Kilmacrennan, where their leader Sir Cahir O'Doherty had been killed, a group of survivors withdrew to Tory Island, pursued there by Sir Henry Folliott, the Governor of Ballyshannon. The rebels took shelter in the castle on the island but it became obvious they could not hold out for long.

  • El asedio de la isla Tory tuvo lugar en 1608 durante la Rebelión de O'Doherty, cuando algunos de los rebeldes restantes presentaron una última resistencia contra las fuerzas de la Corona en la isla Tory, en la costa norte de Irlanda. Después de su derrota en la batalla de Kilmacrennan, donde su líder Cahir O'Doherty había sido asesinado, un grupo de supervivientes se retiró a la isla Tory, siendo perseguidos por , el gobernador de Ballyshannon. Los rebeldes se refugiaron en el castillo de la isla, pero se hizo evidente que no podían aguantar por mucho tiempo. Para servirse de un método conocido como "", el condestable del castillo comenzó a matar a sus compañeros defensores con la intención de entregar sus cabezas cercenadas al enemigo. Mató a tres, antes de que lo apuñalaran hasta la muerte y lo cortaran en pedazos. Su propio asesino fue a su vez reducido. Algunos de los sobrevivientes de la masacre fueron perdonados,​ y varias de las familias derrotadas cambiaron sus apellidos. Por ejemplo, podrían haberlo cambiado a O'Docharty o incluso a O'Darty. Hay más de veinte variaciones que fueron el resultado del perdón obtenido. (es)
  • The siege of Tory Island took place in 1608 during O'Doherty's Rebellion when some of the remaining rebels made a last stand against Crown forces on Tory Island off the northern coast of Ireland. Following their defeat at the Battle of Kilmacrennan, where their leader Sir Cahir O'Doherty had been killed, a group of survivors withdrew to Tory Island, pursued there by Sir Henry Folliott, the Governor of Ballyshannon. The rebels took shelter in the castle on the island but it became obvious they could not hold out for long. To avail himself of a device known as "Pelham's Pardon", the Constable of the castle, Sir Mulmory McSweeney, began to kill his fellow defenders intending to hand their severed heads over to the enemy. He killed three, before he was stabbed to death and cut to pieces. His own killer was in turn cut down. Some of the survivors of the massacre were then pardoned. Some of the family that were pardoned changed their names. For example, they could have changed it to O'Docharty or even O'Darty. There are over 20 variations that were the results of the pardon.
