Dunchadh Ua Cellaigh
Dunchadh Ua Cellaig, 39th King of Uí Maine and 4th Chief of the Name, died 1074.
The Annals of the Four Masters note his death as follows:
Donnchadh Ua Ceallaigh, lord of Ui-Maine, was killed by his brother, Tadhg, grandson of Conchobhar Ua Ceallaigh, on the island of Loch-Caelain.
This would appear to make him a grandson of Concobar mac Tadg Ua Cellaigh, who ruled the kingdom from 1014 to 1030.
