I am only placing this and other short bios until I can add - hopefully within a day or so - more detail. Also, to correct an on-going mistake I've made in the succession lists. Fergananim (talk) 03:00, 15 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

"Tadhg, son of Muirchertach, the father of Con Cennainn, was killed in the battle of Ceissi Corainn, along with Cathal, son of Tadhg, King of Connacht, in the same battle. Also, Geibennach, son of Aedh, King of Uí Maine, and Urchadh, son of Flann, son of Glennenchan, chief of Clann Murchadha, were killed. Furthermore, Searrach Ua Flaithbertaigh, King of Cenél nEógain, and Donnchadh, son of Domhnall, heir of Cenél nEógain, were felled in the same battle, and these noblemen were buried together, both north and south, at the Church of Bishop Luighdech [Toomour Abbey, in the old parish of Keash], between Maelan of Seind Sliabh and Corrsliabh Seghsa [Curlew Mountains]."
