from An Historical Account of the Macdonnells of Antrim: Including Notices of ... By George Hill. Page 361

MacDonnell's wife, I have been credibly told, was most arrogantly rude with her husband, and he, of a pleasant humour, would onely and usually return in his Irish language, how can it be otherwise with a man that has maryed the daughter of the devil. ...
The earl's second wife was Helena, daughter of sir John Bourke of Derrymaclachtney, in the county of Galway. By this lady he left a son, Randal, who succeeded him; and a daughter, married to Henry Wells, Esq., of Bambridge, in the county of Southampton.
The third earl also left an illegitimate son, named Daniel Macdonnell, for whom he provided liberally by a grant of the following lands in the barony of Glenarm, for a period, it was alleged, of 500 years, at the rent of £5 per annum ...
The fourth earl married Rachael Skeffington, third daughter of Clotworthy, second viscount Massereene of the second creation, by his wife Rachael, daughter of sir Edward Hungerford, of Farley-Hungerford castle, in the county of Somerset (23) By her he left one son, Alexander, who succeeded him, and one daughter, the lady Helena M'Donnell, who died unmarried, in June, 1783, at the age of 78. The fourth earl died in 1721, and was buried beside his mother in Christ Church, Dublin. His widow remarried in 1728, with Robert Hawkins Magill, Esq., of Gill-hall, in the county of Down, and died in 1739. (24) This earl is represented by the Rev. Dr. Sheridan of Dublin, as being " illiterate."
