978 |
175. Brian Boroimhe (ancestor of and a quo O'Brien) Brian Boru reigned 66 years, 12 of which as Monarch; he was 88 years of age when slain at the Battle of Clontarf. After Brian's death-- Malachi II was restored to the Monarchy, 1014. After 9 years' reign, Malachi died a penitent at Cro Inis (or the "Cell ont the Island"), upon Loch Annin in Westmeath, A.D.1023; being the 48th Christian King of Ireland, and accounted the last absolute Monarch of the Milesian or Scottish line: the provincial Kings and Princes always after contesting, fighting, and quarrelling for the sovereignty, until they put all into confusion, and that the King of Leinster brought in King Henry the Second to assist him against his enemies.

1001 |
Those and such as our histories mention to have assumed the name and title of Monarchs of Ireland, without the general consent of the major part of the Kingdom, are as follows-- | |
176. H. Doncha (or Donough) This Doncha was the son of Brian Boru, and was the King of Munster till the death of the Monarch Malachi II. He then assumed the title of Monarch, till defeated and banished from Ireland by Dermod, son of Donough, called "Maol-na-Mho," King of Leinster, who is acconted by some to succeed Doncha in the Monarchy; yet is assigned no years for his reign, but that he contested with the said Doncha until he utterly defeated and banished him, A.D. 1064: from which time it is likely that Dermod reigned the rest of the 52 years assigned for the reign of Doncha, who died at Rome, A.D. 1074. |
1022 |
177. E. Diarmid (3), or Dermod By the Irish historians this Dermod, son of Doncha or Donough, King of Leinster, is assigned no date for his accession to the Monarchy. |
|
178. H. Tirloch O'Brien This Tirloch was the son of Teige, eldest son of Brian Boru; and was styled Monarch of Ireland from his uncle's death at Rome, A.D.1074 |
1074 |
179. E. Donall MacLoghlin, son of Ardgal, King of Aileach, was styled Monarch, and ruled alone for 12 years; began to reign | 1086 |
180. H. Muirceartach O'Brien, King of Munster, was, from 1098 up to his death, A.D. 1119, jointly in the Monarchy with Donall MacLoghlin; began to reign-- |
1098 |
Donall reigned alone, after the death of Muirceartach O'Brien, to his own death, A.D.1121; began to reign alone the second time, and reigned 2 years | 1119 |
From Donall's death, A.D.1121, to A.D.1136, though many contested, yet, for 15 years, none assumed the title of Monarch, | 1121 |
181. E. Tirloch Mor O'Connor, King of Connaught for 50 years, and Monarch from A.D., | 1136 |
182. E. Muirceartach MacLoghlin, grandson of Donal (no. 179), was styled Monarch from A.D., | 1156 |
