He is best known for siding with the English against his kinsman Hugh Roe O'Donnell during the Nine Years' War in the 1590s. Overview He was the son of Conn O'Donnell, the son of Calvagh O'Donnell the ruler of the lordship of Tyrconnell. Amongst his brothers were Hugh Boy, Donal and Conn.

Their initial ascent had coincided with the decline of the Ulaid, whose kingdom of Ulster receded to the north-east coast.
