Mac Murchada was born in 1110, a son of Donnchad, King of Leinster and Dublin; he was a descendant of Brian Boru.
Mac Murchada had two wives (as allowed under the Brehon Laws), the first of whom, Mór Ua Tuathaill, was mother of Aoife of Leinster and Conchobar Mac Murchada.
Mac Murchada also 'abducted' Ua Ruairc's wife Derbforgaill along with all her furniture and goods, with the aid of Derbforgaill's brother, a future pretender to the kingship of Meath.

 Conchobar Maenmaige Ua Conchobhair - Wiki Ireland
Conchobar was apparently the eldest of at least eight sons of Ruaidri mac Tairrdelbach Ua Conchobair.
Perhaps Ruaidri was getting too old for the task at hand, for in 1185 war broke out among the Princes of Connacht ("ríogh-dhamhna", literally "king material"), as three contenders for the kingship of Connacht assailed both Ruaidri and each other.
Ruaidri was once more recalled to be king, though only briefly and ended his days as a monk at Cong.

After losing the protection of High King Muirchertach MacLochlainn - who died in 1166 - the King of Leinster Diarmait Mac Murchada (anglicised as Diarmuid MacMorrough) was forcibly exiled from his kingdom by a confederation of Irish forces under the new High King, Ruaidri mac Tairrdelbach Ua Conchobair.
Davies’ account of the Earl of Tyrone’s journey from Mellifont to Rathmullan is complemented by Tadhg O Cianain’s eyewitness account of the earls’ journey from Lough Swilly to the mouth of the Seine in France, offering a vivid picture of the actual departure of the earls for the continent in September 1607.
In the first instance, the unseemly pitched battle with local Mac Suibhnes on the shores of Lough Swilly, as the earls departed their native land, undermines Thomas Ryan’s famous portrait of the Flight of the Earls as a source of great regret to the onlookers on the shores of the lough.
