William Nugent is said to have abducted the titular Baroness of Skryne in 1573. The O'Neills gave him refuge. He made various forays on the Pale and escaped to Scotland with the help of the O'Neills, and then to Rome in 1582. He later returned to Ulster disguised as a friar and subsequently received a pardon.
