Many made their name in the fields of literature including Andrew MacKenna (1833 - 1872) who was a leading editor and writer in Belfast, whilst slightly earlier General John MacKenna (1771 - 1814) having served in the Spanish Army, joined Bernard O' Higgins the "Liberator of Chile", and became an important figure in South America
