John-Cam Fitzgerald, 6th Earl of Kildare

John-Cam Fitzgerald, 6th Earl of Kildare (16) (? - 1427). He was married to Margaret de la Herne (16) (? - ?).

(He built the castles of Maynooth and Kilkea. The former was the famed stronghold of the Geraldines. The Earls of Kildare ruled in "the Pale" and intermarried with the Irish for some 300 years, until it was said they were "more Irish than the Irish," and her most loyal supporters.)

John-Cam's son was Thomas Fitzgerald, 7th Earl of Kildare (15) (? - 1478), Lord Deputy of the Kingdom in 1454 and 1463.

His father was Gerald Fitzgerald, 5th Earl of Kildare (17), (? - 1410), Lord Justice of Ireland in 1405.
