Brien Borom was King of Munster, 1009-1014 (succeeding his father, Kenedy), and Monarch of Ireland, 1002-1014; routed and expelled the Danish Vikings from Ireland; died on Good Friday; his father m. Mary Bebion (Bevionn)(dau.of Arca, Lord of West
Connaought)(her sister Cressa m. Teige, Prince of Connaught) - Collins gives their legendery descent from the early kings of Munster & Ireland clear back to Pharaoh Nectanebus and her ancestor Japhet, son of Noah. {"Royal Ancestors of Magna Charta
Barons," Carr P. Collins, Jr., Dallas, 1959, pp. 148-151; cf. Encycl. Brit., 1956 Ed., 11:602; 15:967 - see comments to Ceallachan, King of Munster - this reference states that Brien Borom's dates are 926-1014.} Seumus MacManus, "The Story of the Irish
Race" (N.Y.:Devin-Adair, 1944, p. 275) calls him the "most famous hero of the Danish period in Ireland...the
celebrated Brian mac Cenneigigh, son of Kennedy, chief of Thomond, including the eastern portion of the present county of Clare, and hereditary ruler of North Munster. He was born probably about the year 941 and is known to history as Brian Boru,
which he took from the name of the town of Borime, near Killaloe, on the right bank of the Shannon. He was the youngest of twelve brothers, all of whom fell in battle, except Marcan, who was a religious and head of the clergy of Munster, and Anluan
who died of a severe illness." MacManus states (pp. 280-82) that Brien died in a battle with the Vikings on Good Friday, April 23, 1014, at Conliffe near Dublin, and is buried at Armagh . The battle (known as the battle of the Weir of Contarf) is
noted by MacManus (pp. 282-83) as "one of the decisive battles of history, for it not only warded off Danish rule from Ireland but probably even altered the whole subsequent history of Europe." Northern France and England became the theater of their
operations for 300 years, instead of Ireland, as they expanded their northern empire. See the popular account, "The Lion of Ireland," by Morgan Llewyllen. The Internet web site http://www.magoo.com/hugh/irishkings.html#pedigrees (2002) states: Also
King of Munster. Son of Ceinneidigh (Cennetig or Ceinnetich, Kenneidi) King of Thomond), son of Lorcan (Lorccain) (mac Lachtnae (lachtnai) macCorcc (Cuircc)), son of Corc, son of Annluan, son of Mathgamhain, son of Toirrdhealbach, son of Cathal, son of

Corb, son of Mogh Corb, son of Cormac Cas (brother of Eoghan Mor), son of Oilill Olum. Brian was married to Gormflaeth ingen Murchada MacFinn, daughter of Morough MacFinn, King of Leinster. She was was "famed for her six marriages." Brian was killed in
the victory over the Danes at Clontarf (Cluaintarbh) on Good Friday in 1013 (or 1014). Maelseachlainn Mor #174 fought with Brian in the battle, and he led the rout of the Danes after the death of Brian. One of eight kings of the Ui Neill, and four of
other dynasties, called a 'king of Ireland' by the Annals of Ulster. (Byrne p. 256)"

David Williamson, "Kings and Queens of Britain," p. 234, gives Brien Borom's son and father of "Dearbforgail" as Donnchad, King of Munster (1023-64). "Ancestral Roots..." (Balt., 1992) 175-2 agrees, and reports that he was King of Munster in 1023, on
pilgrimage to Rome in 1064 and died that year. http://www.magoo.com/hugh/irishkings.html#pedigrees (in 2002) states: "King of Munster. Son of Brian and Gormflaeth ingen Murchada MacFinn. O'Hart says that he assumed the title of Monarch of Ireland
'without the general consent of the major part of the Kingdom.' Went to Rome and made a submission of Ireland to the Pope. Keating says: '. . . the nobles of Ireland consented to the Bishop of Rome's having authority over them, because they were wont
to contend with one another for the mastery of Ireland.' Keating places the year of submission to Pope Urbanus II as 1092 and says that, based on this submission, Pope Adrianus granted Ireland to Henry II in 1155. (book II, section XXXIII). Keating
says that Donnchadh held the sovereignty of Leath Mogha and the greater part of Ireland for fifty years. Beginning in 1042 the last six kings of Ireland appear to have alternated between provincial candidates, first from Leinster, then Aileach,
