The Maguire (/məˈɡwaɪər/mə-GWIRE) family is an Irish clan based in County Fermanagh. The name derives from the Gaelic Mac Uidhir,[1] which is "son of Odhar" meaning "dun", "dark one". According to legend, this relates to the eleventh descendant of Colla da Chrich,[2] great-grandson of Cormac mac Airt, who was monarch of Ireland about the middle of the third century.[3][4] From the 13th to the 17th centuries, the Maguire family were kings of Fermanagh.
