Catholic Bishop of Limerick, who was the

Pray, Those who Fight, and Those who Work.
They also divided the Catholic Church in
Ireland into two
halves, whereby
Armagh
in Co. Armagh in the Ulster Province
was to be the main See,
and
Cashel
in Co. Tipperary in the north - east of the
Munster Province the

Dioceses, allocated to
different provisional kingdoms, which included the
Connor
Diocese in Co. Armagh

Ulster Province, while the
boundaries of the Ossory
Diocese was to be in Co. Kilkenny in the south - west

from the
Heremonian Dal Cuinn Colla Da Croch Ui Sinaig
Sept,
which had previously controlled the Abbacy of
Armagh
for over 100 years
as the main religious centre, who himself personally had
recently also taken up Holy Orders, which meant that he had broken with their tradition as the
previous Abbots
had only ever been
laymen.
O Cane / O Kane / Ua Cathain who was the Heremonian Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Niaill Cenel nEogain King in his territory there also took over the territory of the Heberian Cianachta Fir Li Sept who had their kingdom nearby in the north - east of the Ulster Province, which was situated below the territory of his kinsmen the Dal Cuinn "northern" Ui Niaill Cenel nEogain Septs, and he then also became the Dal Cuinn King of the Heberian Cianachta Glinne Geimhin Sept and both of these Septs were aristocratic warrior origins who had initially originated in the Munster Province from 85.Keen / Cian one of the sons of 84.Ailill Oluimm the 1st King of Munster who is the direct male line ancestor of all of the Cianachta Septs

He did not interfere with the Gaelic Milesian Irian Dal nAraidi Sept who were by now well in decline also there anyway, who were all originally descended from 37.Ir, and their sub - Sept the Ui Echach Cobo, as he was mainly intent on reducing the authority of the more dominant Dal Fiatach Sept, while gaining the overlordship of the territories of these 2 eastern kingdoms in Ulster.
114.Donnell mac Donogh mac Gilla Patrick (Fitz Patrick) the Heremonian Ui Connla King of Ossory in Co.

O Brian the previous
44a King of Cashel / Munster who had died in 1086
AD,

the
180th King
of Ireland, and
also of
108.Diarmait O Brian
who would become the future
45th King
of
Cashel / Munster. This was to see the end of
109.Donnell O Briain's
particular U Turlogh Ui mBriain male line extending from
106.Teague O Brian,
the previous older surviving son of *105.Brian
Boru
to the
Kingships.
*114.Turlogh O Connor the Dal Cuinn Ui Briuin Siol Muireadhaigh / Sil Murray Ui Conchobair 55th King of Connacht was now growing even stronger and he too also divided the nearby kingdom of Meath / Midhe in the south of Northern Leinster to further impede the previous overall authority of the Dal Cuinn "southern" Ui Niaill Clann Cholmain Kings there and thereby try and remove any chance that they also may have had to regain back the overall Kingship of Ireland.
112.Donogh
mac Murrogh
/
Donnchad mac Murchada
the
Heremonian Cu Corb

who was a brother to
112.Donnell

Domhnall mac Murrogh the previous
52nd
King
of
Leinster

particular male line to the Kingship. He was also a brother to
112.Enda / Enna
mac Murrogh who was to be the father of
another
113.Diarmait

in Southern Leinster, who was a son of
*110.Diarmait mac Mail
na
mBo - of
the Many
Cattle the previous
51st King of Leinster
who
had died in
1072 AD after
reviving the
fortunes of the Ui Cheinnselaig Sept's male line
and possibly becoming the unofficial 177th
King of Ireland - with opposition.
They were all initially descended from
94.Enda / Enna Cennsalach
/ Kinsella
who had been the
2nd King
of Leinster
and
the direct male line ancestor of the Ui
Cheinnselaig Sept and
95.Criffin / Crimthann
the
1st
Ui Cheinnselaig
King and
3rd King of Leinster

/ Tairdelbach
O Connor
the
Dal Cuinn
Ui Briuin Ai
Siol Muireadhaigh
/ Sil Murray Ui Conchobair
55th King of Connacht

further opportunities to gain the overall authority for himself in
Ireland, and this year he was to besiege the fortress of the
Heberian Dalcassian
Ui mBriain O Brians at Kincora
in Co. Clare
in the north - west of the Munster Province
and by
destroying it he was now able to assert his authority over the Dal gCais
Sept as another step on the ladder
towards obtaining the overall
Kingship of
Ireland
for the
Heremonian Dal Cuinn
Ui Briuin
Sept, which was
totally unexpected.
1117 AD 113.Diarmait Mac Murrogh / Mac Murchada the Heremonian Cu Corb Ui Cheinnselaig 57th King of Leinster, died this year, who had been a son of 112.Enda / Enna mac Murrogh, another of the 3 sons of 111.Murrogh the previous 51a King of Leinster the direct male line ancestor of the Mac Murrogh Sept in Southern Leinster, who had been one of the 2 sons of 110.Diarmait mac Mail na mBo - of the Many Cattle the previous 51st King of Leinster and unofficial 177th King of Ireland - with opposition.

109.Conor
na Catharach O Brian
the new
Heberian Dal
gCais King of Northern Munster
/ Thomond
endeavouring to push himself forward to be the next
Dalcassian
King
of Cashel / Munster
also
(and possibly a chance at becoming the
King
of Ireland) laid siege to Southern Leinster
to try and assert his
own position in the new scheme of things in Mogha's Half
and he also took the opportunity to subdue the
Viking Danes in
Waterford in
Co. Waterford
nearby in the south - east of the
Munster Province and
also
in
Dublin, which had all previously been ancient
Heberian
subject territory
in
Mogha's Half. While
109.Conor Catharach O Brian was away
on his expedition this
was to allow
*114.Turlogh O Connor
the
Dal Cuinn Ui
Briuin Ai Siol Muireadhaigh / Sil Murray Ui Conchobair
55th King of
Connacht to put him
also in his place by once again attacking the
O
Brian fortress at
Killaloe in Co. Clare.

who was a son of
108.Diarmait O Brian

of Cashel / Munster, was the
Catholic Bishop
of Killaloe.)

The Book of Leinster
was composed during this period containing the conflicts between the
Viking Danes and the Milesian Gaels
