  magoo.com: O'Clery's Book of Genealogies—Meic Eochada by Hugh McGough
Genealogy of O Ceallaigh [O'Kelly] from The Keating Genealogies
O Rahilly and most other Irish scholars believe the line of the Airgiallaigh is simply grafted to the Milesian stock.
The O Clery Book of Genealogies and O Hart's Irish Pedigrees (probably derived from the earlier "Linea Antiqua" by O Farrell) link the families of the Ui Maine in Connacht to the Airgiallaigh (descendants of Colla da chrioch).

 [No title]
The first citation in the OED in the sense `calm, untroubled' is from about 1635; in period citations the word is used as an honorific epithet for a reigning prince or other member of a royal house.
The patronymic appeared as O Mordha on the LoI and as Ô Mordha on his form; the modern spelling is Ó Mórdha, which we have replaced with the earlier Ó Mórda to match the early spelling of the given name.
After Sorcha this must either be Anglicized (e.g., to O Fey) or put into the feminine form; and since she wants an Irish Gaelic name and asks for an `ancient spelling', we have used ingen Fhiaich rather than the later ní Fhiaich.

 20 Infantry Battalion, Irish FCA, trip to France 1989
A committee for the restoration of the college was established in the late 1980's to restore the college and among the patrons was the then primate of All-Ireland, Cardinal Tomas O Fiaich.
Much work in preparation of the College ceremonies still lay ahead; uniforms had to be pressed and inspected, rehearsals to be carried out, soldiers fell in for long periods were the order of the day.
There was a definite sense of occasion and air of excitement about and there is little doubt but that the presence of a large body of (Irish) soldiers on parade added significantly to the event.

When I started writing historical articles, some in Irish and others in English, I found it a bit of a nuisance to be listed in bibliographies as two separate people and i therefore decided to stick to the Irish form whether writing in English or Irish.
Fiach was occasionally used as a forename, presumably first given to someone of a dark or swarthy appearance.
The O had already disappeared before then even among them until fairly late and my grandfather who did not dies until 1927 was, I understand, a good speaker of Irish.

 Northern Ireland Peace Process
Initially, this protest did not attract a great deal of attention, and even the IRA regarded it as a side-issue compared to their armed struggle.
It began to attract attention when Tomas O Fiach, the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Armagh, visited the prison and condemned the conditions there.
In 1979, former MP Bernadette McAliskey stood in the election for the European parliament on a platform of support for the protesting prisoners, and won 5.9% of the vote across Northern Ireland, even though Sinn Féin had called for a boycott of this election.

A few months later, Cardinal Tomas O Fiach entered on a similar visit and compared the conditions in the H Blocks to the 'sewers of Calcutta.' The word was finally out, and the press fell over themselves to interview relatives and the political representatives of the POWs.
Patsy was to join the fast the third week, and the Provos put Raymond Mc Creesh on the same day without our knowledge so as to minimise the effects of the first INLA hunger striker joining the fast.
The reasoning behind it was, "in case, O Hara doesn't go through with it!!" Even then we were still second class POWs.

Mercier has written the screenplay and will direct the film, to be shot on location in Lucan, Co Dublin for five weeks.
"The script has changed radically from the stage version," says Fiach MacConghail, who is producing it with his brother, Cuan, the film's editor, through their company, Brother Films.
Brendan Gleeson will play the new coach who transforms the lives and fortunes of a soccer team who have not won a game in 12 months, and the cast also includes David Wilmot (as the captain), Liam Carney (who was in the original stage production), David Herlihy, Eanna MacLiam, Eamonn Owens and Tomás Ó Súilleabháin.

 RTÉ Sport: Con hope to galvanise top spot
Ireland Under-21 scrum-half Tomas O'Leary, fresh from his impressive display in their 30-19 win over Wales last weekend, returns to the Con side and his usual left wing berth, facing fellow youngsters David Connellan and David Kelly, both of whom starred in last season's Under-20 AIL final win over Con.
With such a disparity in points (17) between second-placed hannon and last season's winners Ballymena back in fifth, a win tomorrow afternoon for Geoff Moylan's Limerick side at Thomond ark should be enough to guarantee a play-off spot with two games to play.
Scrum-half Fiach O'Loughlin has also been out of training action for three weeks, and is rated doubtful by the Shannon management, and it doesn't end there as centre Eoin Cahill will be given until the last possible hour to shake off his flu.

Cardinal Suenens, who visited Ireland perhaps a dozen times, was barracked by the Rev Ian Paisley, his daughter Rhonda, and hundreds of his supporters during an ecumenical service in St Anne's Church of Ireland Cathedral in Belfast in 1986.
Other Church leaders at the service in Week of Prayer for Church Unity, included Cardinal Tomas O Fiach.
During a visit in 1982 Cardinal Suenens said that the Second Vatican Council was not yet fully implemented and urged the worldwide Charismatic Renewal Movement as a means of "bringing it to life." Cardinal Suenens proposed that bishops should retire at 75, which was made law by Pope Paul VI.

Another noticeable foible of Thatcher's was her refusal to call Cardinal Tomas O'Fiach, the head of the Catholic Church in Ireland, by his chosen name, insisting on calling him "Cardinal Fee".

 The Daltaí Boards: Do last names change in Gaeilge?
For example, the English name "Thomas"; It started off as "Tomás" in Gaeilge, and up the North they pronounce a long "a" as a flat "a", and so we have the sound of "Tomas", and written english-ly, it became "Thomas".
To try to change it into Irish would be foolish as would be adding Mac or O' arbitrarily.
I suggested "Daméin" for the posessive case, as nouns in Gaeilge which have an "ia" sound become "é", as in "iasc éisc" "fiach féich".
