Donegal where he took "hostages" from his kinsmen the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Niaill Cenel Conaill Sept, including Donnell Mor - the Greater O Donnell's son to ensure that he retained his "overall authority" to him there in the Ulster Province.
Aed O Rourke, the son of Donnell O Rourke / Ua Ruairc the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Briuin Breifne King of West Breifne in the north of the Connacht Province was slain at Loch Allen by his kinsman Cathal O Reilly / Ua Raghailligh from the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Briuin Breifne kingdom of East Breifne who had his territory in Co.

1227 AD The church originally constructed by St. Colmac at Innis Maan in Co. Mayo in the mid - west of the Connacht Province was burnt down this year.
Henry 111 the "fourth" Norman Angevin
English King now "divided"
the Ulster Province into
Counties under an
English
Sheriff.
Thomas de Clare the Anglo - Norman Baron, who was a son of the English Earl of Gloucester, was now also allocated the Heberian Dal gCais kingdom of Thomond / Northern Munster / O Brian's Country by Henry 111 the "fourth" Norman English King that had previously been confiscated and allocated to Herbert Fitz Herbert the Anglo - Norman Baron, by his grandfather, Henry 11 the "first" Angevin Norman English King, provided he cleared the Heberian Dal gCais Ui mBriain Septs from out of the region there, but on realising the strength of his Gaelic Irish "opposition" there he had resigned his commission. The Heberian Dalcassian territory there had also previously been allocated to William and Philip de Braosa / Bruce by his father King John "Lackland" to do the same, but he had fell out of favour with him and the Heberian Dal gCais Ui Turlough Ui mBriain Septs and the other Heberian Septs had continued to be able to still survive there. Thomas de Clare on arriving into the kingdom of Thomond at first decided to construct a stone castle at Bunratty in Co. Clare in the north - west of the Munster Province against the Gaelic Irish Dalcassians in that region, where previously Robert de Muscegrow, another of the original Anglo - Norman Barons, had built a castle made out of "wood" there. Thomas de Clare was to increase the pressure on the Heberian Dal gCais Septs there by bringing in foreign English Gall "planters." (Later on the Bunratty Castle would eventually pass into the hands of Sir Thomas Rokeby another of the English Justicars in Ireland, from whom it was to be later "taken back" by the Heberian Dalcassians who were to "defeat" him in battle at that particular period in time.
Dunlevy O Gara the Heberian Cianachta Chief of Leyney in the Connacht Province was slain by his own nephew, Giolla Ruadh - of Red Complexion O Gara who was himself soon slain thereafter at the behest of 116.Aed mac Cathail Crobhdhearg O Connor .
1228 AD 116.Aed mac Cathail Crobhdhearg O Connor the "unofficial" 59th King of Connacht - with definite opposition was slain under the instructions of Hugh de Lacey's sons and William Marshall - the Younger's English Justicar's sons, and once again without the solidarity of "The Irish Brehon Law" turmoil reigned again in the Connacht Province. 116.Aed mac Ruaidri O Connor, the "youngest" son of *115.Rory O Connor the previous 56th King of Connacht and last 183rd King of Ireland, and his "older" brother, 116.Turlough mac Ruaidri O Connor who had been previously "inaugurated" as the "official" 58th King of Connacht by 115.Aed Meith O Niall the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Cenel nEogain King of Aileach, now began to "dispute" with each other over who should really be the "official" King of Connacht under "The Irish Brehon Law" and as a result of their "personal" dispute Connacht Province was to be once again "devastated". Richard de Burgh / Burke, the son of the original William de Burgh, came over from England to Ireland to act as the new English Justicar, and the English Galls and the Gaelic Irish Septs held an "Assembly" in Connacht Province to decide what to do about the "dispute" now being carried on by these 2 sons of *115.Rory O Connor. They decided to support 116.Aed mac Ruaidri O Connor, the "younger" son, giving him the Kingship of Connacht and "depose" and "expel" his older brother, 116.Turlough mac Ruaidri O Connor from the Connacht Province altogether. 116,Aed mac Ruaidri O Connor was then installed as the new "official" 60th King of Connacht at their "Inauguration Mound" at Carnfree in Connacht Province, and in despair 116.Turlough mac Ruaidri O Connor's own 2 sons 117.Maelsechlainn mac Ruaidri O Connor and 117.Brian mac Ruaidri O Connor went on a "rampage" and took the cattle they gained during their "revolt" across the River Shannon into Co. Leitrim into Fid Conmaicne. 116.Aed mac Ruaidri O Connor who was now the "official" 60th King of Connacht pursued his "nephews" and one of them, 117.Mael Sechlainn mac Ruaidri O Connor, was slain in the conflict.
The sons of Teague O Gara slew Murtough O Flanagan this year.

Cathal Mac Dermot
/ Mheic Diarmada, "died" this year as a nun, and
Diarmait Mac Carthy the Heberian Eoghanacht Chaisil King
of Southern Munster / Desmond also
"died" this year.
1230 AD 115.Aedh Meith O Niall the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Niaill Cenel nEogain King of Aileach and Co. Tyrone / Tir Eogain in the Ulster Province was advised that he was now to be "left out" of the "land grants" that were to be made by the English Galls in the Ulster Province, that had by now been "divided" into Counties by the English and their appointed sheriffs under the direction of Henry 111 the "fourth" Angevin Norman King of England.
116.Aed mac Ruaidri O Connor who was now the "official" 60th King of Connacht turned on Mac William de Burgho / Burke the Anglo - Norman Baron, and the English Galls / foreigners after being persuaded by Don Og - the Younger mac Geretty, the son of Donough Mac Geretty / Donnchada mheic Airechtaig and Cormac Mac Dermot / Mheic Diarmada, and they began "attacking" the English Galls and the other Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Briuin Ai Siol Muireadhaigh / Sil Murray Septs who were in "opposition" to them, plundering the territory from Tir Maine to Athlone on the River Shannon. Mac William de Burgh the Anglo - Norman Baron, the English Galls and their Irish allies with 116.Felim mac Cathail Crobhdhearg O Connor, who was another "son" of the previously deceased "Ilegitimate" 115.Cathal Crobhdhearg O Connor, who the English Galls now intended to put in as the next "unofficial" King of Connacht to suite their English agenda. They were going to banish 116.Aed mac Ruaidri O Connor, the youngest son of *115.Rory O Connor, who was now the "official" 60th King of Connacht, and to this end they first "attacked" 116.Aed O Flaherty the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Briuin Seola King, and 116.Aed mac Ruaidri O Connor the 60th King of Connacht came to his assistance with the sons of Murtough and O Connor. Don Og Mac Geretty / Mac Airechtaig was to be slain after 5 arrows had been plunged in his body while he was still fighting in the Celtic manner of "hand to hand" combat with his axe, but 116.Aed Mac Ruaidri O Connor was to "escape" the same fate. The English Galls / foreigners then al;located the "unofficial" 61st Kingship of Connacht to 116.Felim mac Cathail Crobhdhearg O Connor and "banished" 116.Aed Mac Ruaidri O Connor, the youngest son of *115,Rory O Connor and previous "official" 60th King of Connaght, who then once again went up to 115.Aed Meith O Niall, the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui NIaill Cenel nEogain King of Aileach in the Ulster Province, for his protection.
115.Aed Meith O Niall the
Heremonian Dal Cuinn Cenel
nEogain King of Aileach in the
Ulster Province, was to "die" this year while in an
"alliance" with
the "rising fortunes" of his kinsman,
Donnell Mor - the Greater O Donnell
the direct male line ancestor of the Ulster Province O
Donnell Septs who was now
the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern"
Ui Niaill Ui Dalaigh
Cenel Conaill King who
was to bring to "greater importance" his particular
Ui Dalaigh Sept
in the scheme of things as he
then also took over
the nearby "southern territory" situated to the south of his own territory in
Tyrconnell / Co. Donegal,
known now as Co. Fermanagh,
Due to the "death" of
115.Aed
Meith O Niall
for the next 2 years the
Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern"
Ui Niaill
Cenel nEogain
O Nialls and their
Cenel nEogain
kinsmen, the
Mac Loughlins
/ Mheic Lochlainn were to be
in "conflict" once again over who now had the "overall authority" in
Ulster Province.
During this time the "son" of
115.Aedh
Meith
O Niall's previously deceased
"brother,"
115.Niall Ruadh - of Red
Complexion O Niall,
known as
*116.Brian

O Niall was to also "ally" himself with Donnell Mor
O Donnell
to overpower
113.Donnel
Mac Loughlin
who was
now not only his
Cenel nEogain kinsmen,
but also his "rival"
for the
Kingship
of Aileach.
This was to allow
*116.Brian
Catha Duinn
O Niall to eventually become the
Heremonian Dal Cuinn
"northern"

of Tyrone / Tir Eogain,
and both of the closely related "northern"

the O Donnells were
then able to continue
to basically "reign independently" in the Ulster Province until
1603 AD, up until the
"Battle of Kinsale" to be
carried out against the ongoing "ethnic and reigious oppression" of
Elizabeth1st at that time,
by
Aed Dubh - of Dark Complexion
O Niall
and Aed Ruad
- of Red Complexion O Donnell.
It would be the "final
revolt" of the
"6 Rebellions" that would be carried out against the ongoing devestating oppression of
Elizabeth 1st
The
Heremonian
Dal Cuinn
Ui Briuin main Septs / Family branches during this
period in
the
Connacht Province were to be the
O Connors, the
O
Flahertys, the O Dowds, the
O Malleys
and the
O Rourkes,
with the
O
Maegans at
Dun Doighre
/ Duniry acting
as their
"lawyers" and the
Keepers of
"The
Irish Brehon Law,"
which had by this period in time been recorded and accumulated for well over
700 years.
Rickarde de Burgh / Burke the Norman English Baron and the English Galls / foreigners were now in complete control of the City of Galway in Co. Galway in the south - west of the Connacht Province, which was situated on Loch Corrib, and he also built the Dun Lure Castle on the north coast of Co. Antrim in the north - east of the Ulster Province against the Gaelic Irish Septs there, and the Galway area in Co. Galway in te Connacht Province was also settled at this time by the Norman English and Welsh traders who were to become commonly known as the "14 foreign Tribes of Galway," including the Athys, the Blakes, the Bodkins, the Brownes, the de Arcys, the Deans, the Fants / Ffonts, the Ffrenchs, the Joyces, the Kirwins, the Lynchs, the Martins, the Morris and the Skerrets.

The O Clerys who were originally from the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "southern" Ui Fiachrach Aidni Sept (many of which later anglicized their name to Clark / Clarke) originally of Kilmacduagh, who were outstanding Celtic historians, were to be driven out of Co. Galway to settle in the "north" to be also under the protection of the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Niaill Cenel Conaill in Tyrconnell / Co. Donegal and Co. Derry in the Ulster Province, and also into the "south" into Co. Waterford and Co. Tipperary in the east of the Munster Province.
