A branch of the family from Cork settled in Youghal during the 15th century. It flourished here from that period until the year 1642, when it entirely disappears from the scene. During the period of its settlement here, the name appears frequently in municipal affairs, both among the Mayors and Bayliffs of the town.

The earliest member of the Cork family who appears to have had direct communication with Youghal, perhaps having a house there, was Adam Copinger. The following is the abstract of a deed to which he was a party : -
