823 AD. 100.Felim mac Crimthainn the Heberian Eoghanacht Chaisil 23rd King of Cashel / Munster was defeated in battle by Cathal mac Ailella the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn Ui Maine King at Mag nAi in the north - east of the Connacht Province.

            100.Felim mac Crimthainn and Artri mac Connor the Bishop of Armagh now joined together in a proclamation in the Munster Province based on the teachings of St. Patrick / Lex Patricii / Cain Phatraic (The Law of Patrick) and it was also during this year that 100.Felim mac Crimthainn took it upon himself to burn the monastery of Gallen / Galine na mBretan in Co. Offaly in the north - west of Southern Leinster.

            Flann mac Flaherty / Flaithbertaig of the Ui Forga Sept who were from the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Ui Conaire Muscraige Tire Sept who were descended from *88.Conaire 11 the 111th King of Tara / Ireland and who had their territory around Nenagh in Co. Tipperary in the south of the Munster Province border gave 7 churches towards the monastery area at Clonmacnoise in Co. Offaly in the north - west of Southern Leinster.

 

824 AD. The Vikings invaded the Skellig Michael monastery off the coast of Co. Kerry in the south - west of the Munster Province, again, and carried off Eitgal the Abbot there who eventually escaped from their grasp, but later died of hunger and thirst, and although Cormac, the son of Selbach, was also taken he managed to escape.

            To keep the religious discourse going the monastic community of Kildare in Central Southern Leinster plundered Tallaght near Dublin in Co. Dublin in the north - east of Southern Leinster, which was the mother church of the Celi De / Culdee religious reformers.

 

826 AD. 100.Felim mac Crimthainn the Heberian Eoghanacht Chaisil 23rd King of Cashel / Munster attacked the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn "southern" Ui Niaill kingdom of Delbna Bethra near Clonmacnoise in the south - west of Midhe / Meath in Northern Leinster, but he still failed to get Artri mac Connor in as his choice as the Abbot of Armagh.

 

827 AD. 100.Felim mac Crimthainn the Heberian Eoghanacht Chaisil 23rd King of Cashel / Munster met with *102.Connor mac Donough who was now the Gaelic Milesian Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn "southern" Ui Niaill Clann Cholmain 165th King of Ireland at the monastery of Birr in Co. Offaly in the north - west of Southern Leinster, just over the Northern Munster border, as 100.Felim's raids on the "southern" Ui Niaill were a threat to *102.Connor mac Donough, and there was also Artri mac Connor's failure to win the Abbot position at Armagh in the south - east of the Ulster Province, which was the main religious centre in Ireland that was strongly connected to the Hermonain Dal Cuinn Ui Niaill Septs.

            At this time 60 Viking ships arrived on the River Boyne near Drogheda on the coast of Northern Leinster, and another to the the south of there on the River Liffey near Dublin in the north - east of Southern Leinster, but none of this Viking activity seemed to have any effect on 100.Felim mac Crimthann.

 

828 AD. The territory around Co. Cork in Southern Munster lost one of their main leaders, 102. / 100. / 98.Eladach mac Dunlainge from the Heberian Eoghanacht Raithlind Ui Ecach Muman Ui Laegairi Sept whose pedigree is also a little blurred as his father 101. / 99. / 97.Dowling / Dunlaing was a son of 97 / 100.Selbach whose father had been 99.Fergal the Heberian King of Des Muman / Southern Munster who had died in 779 AD, as along with 170 others he was killed in a battle with the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Ui Conaire Muscraige Mittine Sept also descended from *88.Conaire 11 the previous 111th King of Tara / Ireland and this gave 100.Felim mac Crimthainn the Heberian Eoghanacht Chaisil 23rd King of Cashel / Munster a further hold there in Des Muman / Desmond / Southern Munster. The Heberian Eoghanacht Raithlind Sept just like the Heberian Eoghanacht Locha Lein Sept had previously saw themselves as separate over - kingdoms.

 

830 AD. 100.Felim mac Crimthainn the Heberian Eoghanacht Chaisil 23rd King of Cashel / Munster won a victory over the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn "southern" Ui Briuin 3 Connachta Sept of Mag Seola in the Connacht Province although they had a combined  force of Heremonian Dal Cuinn 3 Connachta and Heremonian Dal Cuinn Ui Niaill Septs and *102.Connor mac Donough the Gaelic Milesian Heremonian "southern" Ui Niaill Clann Cholmain 165th King of Ireland's brother, 102.Folloman was killed by the Munster Province forces during 100.Felim's attack on Connacht who also burnt the monastery nearby at Fore / Foir in Co. Westmeath in the south - west of Northern Leinster for good measure.

 

831AD 100.Felim mac Crimthainn the Heberian Eoghanacht Chaisil 23rd King of Cashel / Munster took forces from Mogha's Half / both Munster Province and Southern Leinster to show his overall authority in Mogha's Half and attacked the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn "southern" Ui Niaill Siol nAedo Slaine Sept in their kingdom of Brega in the south - east of Northern Leinster reaching as far as Fennor / Finnabair near Slane in Co. Meath in Northern Leinster while besieging the countryside throughout that region.

            Although the writing was on the wall for all to see 100. Felim mac Crimthann still showed no interest as a Church at Maghera / Machaire (The Plain) in Co. Derry in Northern Ulster was also raided by the Vikings this year, and they also began to settle in at Limerick in Co. Limerick in the mid - north - west of the Munster Province on the eastern side of the River Shannon in what was still the territory of the Eoghanachta Septs where they also began to trade and by this time the Vikings were also carrying out continuous raids all over Ireland.

 

832 AD. 100.Felim mac Crimthainn the Heberian Eoghanacht Chaisil 23rd King of Cashel / Munster carried out another 3 raids himself on the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn "southern" Ui Niaill kingdom of Delbna Bethra in Northern Leinster, and while in the region also burnt their sanctuary of Termon at Clonmacnoise in Co. Offaly in the north - west of Southern Leinster.
