	Iar Connacht - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Iar Chonnachta (longer form - Iarthar Chonnachta) (anglicised spelling- Iar Connaught) covers the portion of County Galway west of Loch nOirbsean ( Loch Corrib) and the Gaillimh / Galway River (better known as the River Corrib) and the portion of County Mayo in the barony of Ross.
		As they were the most powerfull clan in this part of Connacht it seems that the O Flahertys and the earlier kings of Maigh Seola held some sway over all of Iar Chonnacht even before the O Flahertys were forced west of Loch Coirib.
		The O Flahertys remained as lords of Iar Chonnachta until they lost their lands in the upheavals of the mid 1600's.

	Delbhna Tir Dha Locha - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dealbhne ThÃre DhÃ¡ Loch(a) (" The Dealbhne of the Two Lochs") was a tuath (a tribal kingdom) of medieval Ireland, located in Iar Connacht in the west of Co.
		In the 12OO's the O Flahertys (lords of UÃ BhriÃºin Seola) fled into this area and the rest of Iar Chonnachta during the Anglo-Norman invasion of Connacht.
		The O Flahertys ruled Iar Chonnachta until the upheavals of the mid 17th century.

		Munster Gaeltachtaí include parts of Cork, Kerry, and Waterford, the Connacht Gaeltachtaí are on the west coasts of counties Galway and Mayo, and the Ulster Gaeltacht is entirely within county Donegal.
		To my ear, the Connacht style seems to be less concerned with the integrity of the beat, particularly in slower songs.
		The real beauty of the Connacht style is to me the way the performer connects the text to his interpretation of the melody.

	Surname Reports
		I think that the McGing/McGinn of Connacht are certainly native to that province and have no connection with the Ulster sept. The one early reference I have uncovered may or may not be of this family but more research is needed to fill out the picture here.
		The thrust of this was to try and establish the presence of a native sept of MacFhinn in Connacht.
		MacCotter is saying is that the McGings (and other names derived from MacFhinn) that are found in Connacht are probably descended from the 15th century Galway MacFhinns, and these, in turn, may be connected to the more ancient tribe of the Sogain.

	:::: Clan Cleary - O Conor Pedigree ::::
		According to " MacDermot of Moylurg " MacGeraghty was one of the senior chieftains at the inauguration of the King of Connacht, Cathal Craobhdearg in 1201.
		In Connellan's notes to his edition of the Annals of the Four Masters, he says that in the 16th century, some of this clan settled in Mayo and Sligo and were to this day (he was writing in 1846) the chief possessors of the island of Inismurray, off the coast of Sligo.
		He is ancestor of the present day O Conor Don, Prince of Connacht who is a member of the Standing Council of Irish Chiefs and has represented the Irish Chiefs at meetings of the Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs.

	IX. The Gaels (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		were the royal tribe of Connacht, although in the early seventh century they began alternating the rather nominal provencial kingship of Connacht with their Ui Briuin kinsmen until about A.D. After this time the Ui Briuin monopolized the kingship of Connacht, and in time molded it into an effective over-kingdom.
		Before the Anglo-Norman invasion of Connacht in 1237 the O’Dowds were the ruling family in all lower Connacht, including the greater part of counties Mayo and Sligo.
		They were also a great seapower, like the O’Malleys of Iar Connacht, which was unusual among native Irish families, for seapower was generally given over to the Viking clans of the Irish Sea.

		Large numbers of supporters travelling to the games in France and England was particularly noteworthy and hopefully this is a trend that will continue next season.
		The addition of a new means of HC qualification via play-off with the third placed Italian side was also a positive initiative and one greatly welcomed by Connacht supporters despite the finish to the season.
		On the flip side however we were treated to the unedifying spectacle early in 2005 of being publicly berated by Philip Browne for having the temerity to suggest bringing home our wild geese using external funding and having to produce (uniquely it is believed) a Business Plan to justify the programme.

		They are still a numerous family in this original territory; while a branch also became established (probably as a result of the Anglo-Norman invasion) at Magh Lacha, a plain in the barony of Kells, County Kilkenny, where they also became numerous.
		The Partraige were the ancient and remote people who inhabited the wastelands of Iar Connacht (literally, "west of Connacht," i.e., beyond Connacht proper) between Loch Corrib and Loch Mask.
		Little is heard of them besides their existence until the emergence in historical times of the O’Malleys, who later disguised their origin by the assertion of kinship with the Ui Briuin Gaels (which was probably founded on intermarriage).

		Though not Gaelic and sometimes found in England of non-Irish origin, Joyce may certainly be regarded as a true Irish name, and more particularly a Connacht one.

		His brother Robert Dwyer Joyce (18301883) was well known in the U.S.A. as a physician and poet, while Isaac Wilson descent, made a name in a different field, for he was a Methodist revivalist preacher.
