Printed: 2020/05/13 16:49 Page 1 /Users/giovanni/Documents/Gen/Hannah20120513.rtf "Cenl Enda Two distinct territories are mentioned. From Eanna (Enda), the sixth son of Conall Gulban, descended the Cinel Eanna, Kings of Magh Ith, Tir Eanna and Fanad in present day county Donegal. This territory was in and near the southern tip of Inishowen. (note: The cantred of Enda, son of Niall, is mentioned by the Four Masters in the year 1600). Hogan (Goedelicum) describes the original apportionment to Enna, son of Niall, in the partition of Tirconnell, circa 400 A.D. to comprise from the boundary of Inis Eoghain [island of Owen] to Bearnas mor (Gap of Barnesmore, near Donegal) and Sruthail (Sruell, Killyward parish, barony of Banagh, c. Don.) According to O'Dugan (Poems), the following were chiefs of Magh Ith: O'Baoighill, O'Maiolbreasail, O'Cuinn, and O'Cionaith. Mag Ith was partly in the barony of Raphoe in Donegal, and partly in the barony of Tirkeran in Derry. O'Breslin, cited as chiefs in Fanad and noted as brehons there, are cited by MacLysaght as a branch of Cenel Enda, and by others as a branch of Cenel Conaill (descent from Fergus Fanad). Another Cenl Endai was cited in southern county Donegal and possibly northwestern county Fermanagh. As the story goes, Enda, the youngest son of Niall of the 9 hostages, received territory about the 5th century which extended from the river Errity to Barnesmore, barony of Tir Hugh, to Sruell in the barony of Banagh, county of Donegal. The north-western limit was Farnagh in the parish of Aughnis, barony of Kilmacrenan. The eastern limit of his lands was the river Finn. To confuse matters, there does not appear to be evidence of a dynastic family descended from Enda existing in the North before the 11th century. All earlier references in the Irish texts seem to associate the Cenl Enda with the Cenl Fiachach and the Legaire in Mide and also in Connacht. For example, Ua Braonain (O'Brennan) of Creeve and Mac Ruairc (Mag Rourke, Groarke) of Teallach-Conmasa, both located in county Westmeath, claim descent from a Cenl nnna. 11th century chiefs of Cenl n-Enda mentioned in the annals below include ua Lapin (O'Lappin) and ua h-Eicnechan (roughly O'Heneghan). Chiefs from Cenl Moen and Cenl Conaill are later noted in the area of Tir Enda in county Donegal. The annals cite: • M1010, Oenghus Ua Lapin, tigherna [leader/head] Cenl n-Enda was slain by the Cinel-Eoghain of the Island. • LC1019, Flaithbhertach Ua Neill went into Tir-Conaill, and he destroyed Tir-Enna and Tir- Lughdech. • M1036, C Ciche, mac Eccnechin, tigherna [leader/head] Ceneoil Enda, died. • M1057, Niall Ua hEgnechain, king [tigherna/leader/head] of Cenel-Enna, rested. • LC1078, Cathal, son of Domhnall, king [tigherna/leader/head] of Cenel-Enna, was killed by the Cenel-Eoghain of the Island. • M1175, The Kinel-Enda were defeated, and a great slaughter made of them by Eachmarcach O'Kane, and Niall O'Gormly. • M1177, Niall O'Gormly, Lord of the men of Magh-Ithe and Kinel-Enda, was slain by Donough O'Carellan and the Clandermot in the middle of Derry Columbkille. • M1177, O'Muldory and the Kinel-Connell were defeated by Conor O'Carellan in a battle, in which O'Sherry and many other distinguished men of the Kinel-Enda were slain. • M1199, Donnell O'Doherty, Lord of Kinel-Enda and Ard-Mire (Ard-Midhair), died." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conall_Gulban Printed: 2020/05/13 16:49 Page 2 /Users/giovanni/Documents/Gen/Hannah20120513.rtf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eochaid_Mugmedón https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_mac_Cuinn https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conn_Cétchathach Conall Gulban (son of Niall Noigiallach/Niall of the 9 hostages d: c. 455; grand-son of Eochaid Mugmedon; g-grand-son of Muiredach Tirech; 2g-grand-son of Fiacha Sraibhtine; 3g-grand-son of Cairbre Lifechair & Aine; 4g-grand-son of Cormac mac Airt/Cormac ua Cuinn/Cormac Ulfada & Eithne Ollamde and Fionn mac Cumhaill; 5g-grand-son of Art mac Cuinn/Art Oenfer/Art the solitary & Achtan; 6g-grand-son of Conn Cetchathach/Conn of the 100 battles & Eithne Taebfada and Olc Acha; 7g-grand-son of Fedlimid Rechtmar and Cathair Mor; brother of Eogan mac Neill) d: c. 464 children: Fergus Cenfota Dauf (founder of Cenel nDuach) Enna Bogaine (founder of Cenel mBogaine) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branches_of_the-Cenel_Conaill Cenel Eanna/ Enda/Nenna: kindred/descendants of Eanna son of Conall Gulban, hence members of Cenel Eanna/Enda are also members of Cenel Conaill Lugaid mac Setnai (ggs of Conall Gulban) Aedha mac Ainmirech (ggs of Conall Gulban) Enna Bogaine (s of Conall Gulban) Tigernach Dui/Tigernach Duach (s of Conall Gulban) Nainnid (s of Tigernach Dui/Tigernach Duach) Baedan (s of Nainnid) (king of Tara in 568) Eanna/Enda (s of Conall Gulban) (6th son) O nEicnechan/O'Heneghan Aedha mac Ainmirech (ggs of Conall Gulban) Fergus Fanad (of cinel Conail) O Breaslain of Fanad/Fanat (descendant of Fergus Fanad) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conall_Gulban Conall Gulban (son of Niall of the 9 hostages/Niall Noigiallach) d: 464 in county Cavan/Magh Slecht murdered by the Masraige a Fir Bolg tribe buried: at Fenagh, county Leitrim https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niall_of_the_Nine_Hostages Niall of the 9 hostages/Niall Noigiallach d: probably c. 450 (but between 380 & 460) m1: Inne (d of Lugaid) children: Fiachu (cenel Fiachach) m2: Rignach children: Loegaire (cenel Loegaire) Endae Maine (cenel Ui Maine/O'Maine) Eogan (cenel nEogain) Printed: 2020/05/13 16:49 Page 3 /Users/giovanni/Documents/Gen/Hannah20120513.rtf Conall Gulban (cenel Conaill) Conall Cremthainne (clann Cholmain & the Sil nAedo Slaine) Coirpre (cenel Coirpre) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columba St. Columba/Colm Cille/Crimthann (s of Fedelmid mac Fergus O'Neill & Eithne mac Feargus; gs of Fergus Cennfota mac Conaill & Erca ingen Loarn of Dalriada; ggs of Conall Gulban mac Neill; 2ggs of Niall of the 9 hostages/Niall Noigiallach) b: 621-12-07 in Gartan near Lough Gartan county Donegal, Ireland d: 597-06-09 (student of St. Finnian who was student of St. Ninian.) http://clanmaclochlainn.com/clanhist.htm Sometime before his death in 405 A.D., Niall's three sons, Eoghan, Eanna and Conal Gulban founded kingdoms in the north of Ireland, a territory formerly ruled by the Ulaid, who gave their name to the province of Ulster... From Eoghan descended the Cinel Eoghainn (progeny of Owen), of which the McLaughlins and the O'Neills were the ruling dynasty. From his brother Conal Gulban descended the Cinel Chonaill of Tirconnell, of which in later centuries the O'Donnells were the chief representatives. From Eanna, the third brother, descended the Cinel Eanna, Kings of Magh Ith, Tir Eanna and Fanad in present-day Co. Donegal until dispossessed of their territories by the expansion of the Cinel Chonaill septs in the 12th century... the Cinel Chonaill forces swept into the peninsula in the wake of the Norman withdrawall... The O'Doghertys had formerly been Lords of the kingdom of Ard Miodhair in central Donegal, but over the centuries had expanded their original holdings by annexing the kingdoms of Magh Ith and Tir Eanna, the latter bordering the Inishowen peninsula to the south.

Its principle aim is to engage with recent revisionist accounts of the various dynasties within the Uí Néill; these necessitate a radical reappraisal of our understanding of their origins and genesis as a dynastic confederacy, as well as the geo-political landsape of the central midlands. Consequently, this paper argues that there is a pressing need to address such issues via more focused analyses of local kingdoms and political landscapes. Holistic understandings of polities like Luigne Breg are fundamental to framing new analyses of the genesis of the Uí Néill based upon interdisciplinary assessments of landscape, archaeology and documentary sources. In the latter part of the paper, an attempt is made to to initiate a wider discussion regarding the nature of kingdoms and collective identities in early medieval Ireland in relation to other other regions of northwestern Europe.

  • Macbeth Informational Text: the Real Story
    Name ________________________________________ Period _______ Macbeth Informational Text: The Real Story It is interesting to note that Shakespeare‘s play Macbeth was based loosely on true stories about real people. In fact, it is believed that Shakespeare wrote the play for King James I and VI, who was king of both England and Scotland at the time. Allegedly using the Chronicles of England, Scotland, and Ireland (1587) by Raphael Holinshed as his source of information, Shakespeare set out to create a realistic fictional drama based on a true story. The real King Duncan I (Donnchad mac Crínáin), nicknamed ―the sick‖ was the King of Scotland (called Alba) from 1034 to 1040. He was the grandson of Malcolm II, who was killed in battle in 1034. Duncan had two sons, Malcolm III, and Donald III. According to records, Duncan was young and weak and was seen as a terrible and ineffective leader. His ascension to the throne at age 17 caused turmoil in the family, as the kingship was to have alternated between the two branches of the royal line. Many believed his cousin, Macbeth (Mac Bethad mac Findlaích), should have had claim to the throne through his mother. This caused strife in the family, which would continue for hundreds of years. After Duncan was killed in battle by Macbeth in 1040, Macbeth took the throne and became King of Scotland. Macbeth reigned successfully for 17 years, and he was said to be a powerful and strong leader. However, Duncan‘s son Malcolm wanted revenge against Macbeth, and felt that he should have inherited the throne after his father‘s death.

  • Scotland: Bruce 286
    Scotland: Bruce 286 Scotland: Bruce Robert the Bruce “Robert I (1274 – 1329) the Bruce holds an honored place in Scottish history as the king (1306 – 1329) who resisted the English and freed Scotland from their rule. He hailed from the Bruce family, one of several who vied for the Scottish throne in the 1200s. His grandfather, also named Robert the Bruce, had been an unsuccessful claimant to the Scottish throne in 1290. Robert I Bruce became earl of Carrick in 1292 at the age of 18, later becoming lord of Annandale and of the Bruce territories in England when his father died in 1304. “In 1296, Robert pledged his loyalty to King Edward I of England, but the following year he joined the struggle for national independence. He fought at his father’s side when the latter tried to depose the Scottish king, John Baliol. Baliol’s fall opened the way for fierce political infighting. In 1306, Robert quarreled with and eventually murdered the Scottish patriot John Comyn, Lord of Badenoch, in their struggle for leadership. Robert claimed the throne and traveled to Scone where he was crowned king on March 27, 1306, in open defiance of King Edward. “A few months later the English defeated Robert’s forces at Methven. Robert fled to the west, taking refuge on the island of Rathlin off the coast of Ireland. Edward then confiscated Bruce property, punished Robert’s followers, and executed his three brothers. A legend has Robert learning courage and perseverance from a determined spider he watched during his exile. “Robert returned to Scotland in 1307 and won a victory at Loudon Hill.

  • The Phylogenealogy of R-L21: Four and a Half Millennia of Expansion and Redistribution
    The phylogenealogy of R-L21: four and a half millennia of expansion and redistribution Joe Flood* * Dr Flood is a mathematician, economist and data analyst. He was a Principal Research Scientist at CSIRO and has been a Fellow at a number of universities including Macquarie University, University of Canberra, Flinders University, University of Glasgow, University of Uppsala and the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology. He was a foundation Associate Director of the Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute. He has been administrator of the Cornwall Y-DNA Geographic Project and several surname projects at FTDNA since 2007. He would like to give credit to the many ‘citizen scientists’ who made this paper possible by constructing the detailed R1b haplotree over the past few years, especially Alex Williamson. 1 ABSTRACT: Phylogenealogy is the study of lines of descent of groups of men using the procedures of genetic genealogy, which include genetics, surname studies, history and social analysis. This paper uses spatial and temporal variation in the subclade distribution of the dominant Irish/British haplogroup R1b-L21 to describe population changes in Britain and Ireland over a period of 4500 years from the early Bronze Age until the present. The main focus is on the initial spread of L21-bearing populations from south-west Britain as part of the Beaker Atlantic culture, and on a major redistribution of the haplogroup that took place in Ireland and Scotland from about 100 BC. The distributional evidence for a British origin for L21 around 2500 BC is compelling. Most likely the mutation originated in the large Beaker colony in south-west Britain, where many old lineages still survive.

    George VI of the United Kingdom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 10/6/11 10:20 PM George VI of the United Kingdom From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from King George VI) George VI (Albert Frederick Arthur George; 14 December 1895 – 6 February 1952) was King of the United Kingdom George VI and the Dominions of the British Commonwealth from 11 December 1936 until his death. He was the last Emperor of India, and the first Head of the Commonwealth. As the second son of King George V, he was not expected to inherit the throne and spent his early life in the shadow of his elder brother, Edward. He served in the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force during World War I, and after the war took on the usual round of public engagements. He married Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon in 1923, and they had two daughters, Elizabeth and Margaret. George's elder brother ascended the throne as Edward VIII on the death of their father in 1936. However, less than a year later Edward revealed his desire to marry the divorced American socialite Wallis Simpson. British Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin advised Edward that for political and Formal portrait, c. 1940–46 religious reasons he could not marry Mrs Simpson and remain king. Edward abdicated in order to marry, and George King of the United Kingdom and the British ascended the throne as the third monarch of the House of Dominions (more...) Windsor.
