*92.Ailill Molt the Gaelic Milesian 129th King of Tara / Ireland - 92.Eochy (Ui Fiachrach Aidni Sept - 92.Fiachnae (Ui Fiachrach Muaidhe Sept)
The perpetual tribute / borumha had originally been made obligatory on the Gaelic Milesian Heremonian Ui Laoghaire UI Lughaidh Septs in Southern Leinster by *81.Tuathal / Toole Teachtmhar the Gaelic Milesian Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Ui Felim 106th King of Tara / Ireland in the 1st Century AD for the death of his two daughters due to the insensitivity of the then King of Leinster and it was further added to to by *81.Tuathal Teachtmar's descendant, *85.Cormac mac Airt áfter he became the Gaelic Milesian 115th King of Tara / Ireland due to the massacre during his time of the aristocratic girls and their maidservants at Tara, by 94.Dowling / Dunlaing the Heremonian Ui Laoghaire Ui Lughaidh Cu Corb Prince of Leinster. This particular ongoing heavy tribute / borumha was to continue to create havoc between the Septs in Southern Leinster and the long line of Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Ui Felim Dal Cuinn Kings of Tara / Ireland.
467 AD *92.Ailill Molt who was now the Gaelic Milesian Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach 129th King of Tara / Ireland came into conflict with the Southern Leinster Septs while expresiing his authority there.
*92.Ailill Molt as the Gaelic Milesian Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach 129th King of Tara / Ireland held the Feast of Tara / Teamhair this year.
468 AD The Battle of Duma Aichir occurred against the rule of *92.Ailill Molt the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach 129th King of Tara / Ireland.
469 AD The Feast of Tara / Teamhair was held once again by *92.Ailill "Molt" the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach 129th King of Tara / Ireland.
470 AD The Feast of Tara / Teamhair was held again by *92.Ailill "Molt" the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach 129th King of Tara / Ireland, and once again he also came into conflict with the Southern Leinster Septs.
473 / 5 AD *92.Ailill "Molt" the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach 129th King of Tara / Ireland defeated the Southern Leinster Septs in the Battle of Bri Eile.
474 / 6 AD The Southern Leinster Septs defeated *92.Ailill "Molt" the 129th King of Tara / Ireland in battle at Duma Aichir.
478 AD / 482 AD *92.Ailill Molt the Gaelic Milesian Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach 129th King of Tara / Ireland was killed in the Battle of Ochae near Tara after he was defeated in battle this time by 92.Lewy / Lughaidh, the son of *91.Leary / Laoghaire the previous Heremonian Dal Cuinn "southern" Ui Niaill 128th King of Tara / Ireland and 93.Murtogh / Muirchertach mac Ercae from the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Niaill Cenel nEogain Sept and with his demise this was to see the end altogether of the aristocratic warrior direct male line from the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach Septs to the Kingship of Tara / Ireland. From now on it would only be the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "southern" and "northern" Ui Niaill aristocratic warrior descendants of 90.Niall - of the Nine Hostages the previous Gaelic Milesian 126th King of Tara / Ireland who would rule as the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Ui Felim Dal Cuinn Kings of Tara / Ireland until 1004 AD when *105.Brian Boru - of the Tributes would become the Gelic Milesian Heberian Da gCais 175th High King of Ireland. This was to also mean that any chance of "unity" between the Heremonian Dal Cuinn 3 Connachta Septs belonging to his half - brothers, 90.Brion (Ui Briuin), 90.Fiachra (Ui Fiachrach)and 90.Ailill (Ui Ailello) in the Connacht Province was now also gone.
495 AD Despite the growing importance of the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Niaill Septs in gaining the Kingship of Tara / Ireland the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach Septs at this time were still the most important dynasty in the Connacht Province as no over - king was to actually exist there until the middle of the 8th Century AD and later on the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Fiachrach Muaidh Septs where to continue to rule the Moy Estuary in the north of Connacht and the rich fertile plain to the east, including their O Dowd territory of Tireragh / Tir Fiachrach (The Land of 90.Fiachra) in the Middle Ages from the Ui Fiachrach Aidni territory in the south - west. (The Ui Fiachrach Muaidhe Mac Firbishs were to be the hereditary genealogists to the Ui Fiachrach Muaidhe O Dowds, who were to preserve many of their Septs manuscripts on Irish history.
The 3 sons of 90.Fiachra the aristocraytic warrior direct male line ancestor of the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach Septs had been supreme during their time at the top with *91.Dathi / Nathi / Feradach the Gaelic Milesian Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach 127th King of Tara / Ireland in Brega / Midlands / Midhe / Co. Meath in the south - east of Northern Leinster, while his brother, *91.Awley / Amhalgaidh had been the first Hermonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach Christian King of Connacht who became the direct male line ancestor of the Tir nAmalgado Septs.
One of *92.Ailill Molt's 2 sons, who was also known as 93.Macc Ercae was to die in 543 AD, ending his particular aristocratic warrior male line quickly, while his other son, 93.Kelly / Cellach became the father of 94.Eogan Bel who was to be the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach 4th King of Connacht, after 91.Daui Tenga Uma - of the Sweet Tongue who had been the son of *90.Fiachra's older deceased brother, 90.Brion (Ui Briuin). 94.Eogan Bel's son, 95.Ailill Inbanda became the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach 5th King of Connacht after his father, but was also to be the last of the aristocratic warrior male line of *92.Ailill Molt to do so, after he was to die in 550 AD.

99.Murtogh / Muirchertach Nar who became the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "southern" Ui Fiachrach Aidni 15th King of Connacht who was to die in 668 AD, which then ended his aristocratic warrior male line to the Kingships.

99.Artgal his other son was to be the father of 100.Fergal Aidni the Dal Cuinn "southern" Üi Fiachrach Aidni 17th King of Connacht who was to die in 696 AD, which then saw the end altogether of the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "southern" Ui Fiachrach Aidni direct aristocratic warrior male line to the Kingships.
92.Fiachnae the other brother to *92.Ailill Molt the Gaelic Milesian Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach 129th King of Tara / Ireland became the direct aristocratic warrior male line ancestor of the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Fiachrach Muaide Sept, whose son,
93.Elgach was the father of;
94.Maeldub, the father of;
95.Tipraite, the father of;
96.Dunchad Muirisci who had previously been the 16th King of Connacht and the first from his particular Ui Fiachrach Muaidhe Sept to do so and he had 3 sons who continued on their artistocratic warrior Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach Muaidhe male line into the Kingships,

99.Cathal the Ui Fiachrach King who was to die in 816 AD, who also left no further aristocratic warrior issue to the Kingship.
Another son of 96.Dunchad "Muirisci" was 97.? who was the father of another 98.Tipraite who was to die in 719 AD who also left no issue to the Kingships, and another son,
97.Ailill who was the father of ;

99.Donn Cothaid who became the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach Muaidhe 28th King of Connacht who was the father of 100.Cathmug who was to die in 787 AD, which ended altogether also the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Fiachrach Muaide direct male line to the Kingships forever.
From then on it was to be the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Briuin Septs aristocratic warrior direct male line from 90.Fiachra's older brother, 90.Brion that was to outstay the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Fiachrach Septs as the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Ui Felim Dal Cuinn O Connor Kings of Connacht, and later still as 2 of the Kings of Ireland down to 1189 AD after the Anglo - Norman Invasion. The Gaelic Milesian Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Briuin would then be represented by the main Families of the Ui Briuin Ai Siol Muiredaig Ui Conchobhair O Connors, Mac Dermots and Mac Donaghs, the Ui Briuin Breifne O Rourkes and O Reillys, and the Ui Briuin Seola O Flahertys.
Another Heremonian Dal Cuinn Sept, the Dal Cuinn Colla Da Crioch Ui Maine, also descending from 83.Conn - of the Hundred Battles the Gaelic Milesian 110th King of Tara / Ireland was still to retain considerable overall authority over the south of Co. Roscommon in the east of the Connacht Province and the south - east of Co. Galway in Southern Connacht and over the Centuries ahead the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Niaill Septs were to also finally take over the territories and Tuaths in the Ulster Province also. Connacht Province was to be the original Heremonian Dal Cuinn territory during the 4th and 5th Century AD for the ancestors of the 4 Ui Briuin Septs, the 2 Ui Fiachrach Septs, the Ui Ailello Sept and the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Colla Da Crioch Ui Maine Sept in Fuerty in Co. Roscommon in the south east, with Breifne the Heremonian Dal Cuinn kingdom of the Ui Briuin Breifne Sept situated in a very narrow region to the north.
The Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Briuin Septs descending from 90.Fiachra's brother, 90.Brion were now moving towards overall authority in the Connacht Province, and from now on there was also to be pressure exerted to the south and west by the Dal Cuinn Colla Da Crioch Ui Maine Septs, who were also under pressure themselves in the north from the expanding Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Briuin Ai aristocratic warrior Sept. who were also descended from *83.Conn - of the Hundred Battles the Gaelic Milesian 110th King of Tara / Ireland initilaly through 89.Maine Mor one of the sons of *88.Murray Tireach the Gaelic Milesian 122nd King of Tara / Ireland, who had been a brother to 89.Eochy / Ech Mugmedon the Gaelic Milesian 124th King of Tara / Ireland the direct aristocratic warrior male line ancestor of the Ui Fiachrach Septs, the Ui Briuin Septs, the Ui Aiello Septs and the Ui Niaill Septs, 88.Colla Da Crioch, a cousin of *88.Murray Tireach" became the eventual ancestor of the Heremonian Dal Cuinn Colla Da Crioch Ui Maine Septs.
