Magherintemple is an area in north County Cavan in the province of Ulster, Ireland. It encompasses seventeen townlands of the Parish of Drung, in the Barony of Tullaghgarvey.[1]

The name Magherintemple comes from the Irish "Machair an Teampaill" meaning 'Temple on the plain'. The area holds no governmental significance as a region today. In contemporary times, however, it was in all probability a ballybetagh or tributary area of a Gaelic lordship possibly the Priory of Fore in County Westmeath. It centres on the townland of Magherintemple, a drumlin or high hill known locally as Maghera.

Clan Tully(Chlainne Uí Mhaoiltuile), an Irish Clan meaning "descendants" or "kindred" of Maoltuile, had, in the 12th century, the tuatha (territory) of Muintir Taithligh, where they were chiefs of the Hy-Laoghaire (O'Leary's) of Lough Lir, in the barony of Lurg, near Lough Erne in modern-day County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland[2] and the barony of Tullygarvey, in the parish of Drung, Wikipedia:Kingdom of Breifne.[3][4]

"O'Ruairc or O'Rourke; and O'Raghallaigh or O'Reilly; these were the Princes of the territory of Bréifne with Mac Gilla Duib (Mac Gilduff) noted as chiefs of Tullygarvey (also known as Telach Gairbheth, alias Tellach Garbha. Subordinate to these was MacTaichligh or MacTully, chief of a district in the parish of Drung, in the barony of Tullygarvey" - unknown

According to John O'Hart, among the chiefs of the parish of Lurg were the Tully of Ulster (Muintir Taithligh) "chiefs of Hy-Laoghaire, of Lough Lir, a district which lay in the barony of Lurg, near Lough Erne, towards Tyrone."[5]
