The McKenna lords of Truagh were a family of real local standing in the south Ulster borderland world, their territory in the landscape of north Monaghan placing them at the intersection of Ulster and Connacht. This Irish woven blanket features the McKenna family crest against the Irish National Tartan, honouring a County Monaghan Gaelic heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHistory \u0026amp; Heritage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe McKenna lords of Truagh held their territory in the barony of Truagh in north County Monaghan, a landscape of small drumlins and lakes at the heart of the south Ulster borderlands.
