 Daibhidh Ó Duibhgheannáin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There is a slight chance that he may have been the (or a) intermediary responsible for presenting Dubhaltach MacFhirbhisigh with "Volume C" of the original four volumes of the autograph of the Annals of the Four Masters, covering the period AM 2242 to AD 1171.
Peregrine O'Duignan, one of the four main responsible for compiling the book, was a kinsman of Daibhidh's.
However, an idea proposed by the writer of this article that Daibhaidh was MacFhirbhisigh's mysterious amanuensis cannot be sustained, as a comparison of their handwriting bears no resemblance to each other.

According to Nollaig O Muraile, it is "a collection of annals belonging to the 'Clonmacnoise group', covering the period from prehistoric times to 1150 but with some gaps, closely related to the 'Annals of Tigernach'.
It survives in a paper copy made by Dubhaltach MacFhirbhisigh c.
1640 from an exemplar no longer extant." MacFhirbhisigh's copy was held by his friend (and possible pupil) Roderick O Flaherty in the late 1600's, but was in France for a time in the 1760's before its purchase by Trinity College Dublin in 1776.
