Tharlódh go ndearnadh -h- fhoirmeacha truaillithe béarlaithe na seachtú haoise déag a rith isteach go hearráideach i bhfoirmeacha na dara míre agus gur measadh gur foirmeacha béarlaithe den sloinne Corcaíoch Ó Héalaithe, mar atá, Healy, Hely (Fam. Names 170, -4) a bhí sa tarna heilimint ó thús. Díreach laisteas de réimse talún an dá bhar. I agus N atá bar. Bharraigh Mhóra a raibh ceathrar déag dar shloinne O Healy ag cur fúthu sa bhliain 1659.
