Tibraide Mac Fearchair
Tibraide mac Fearchair (died 781 or 790) was Abbot of Clonfert. There is some confusion over the length of Tibraide's term of office, as his death is listed twice in the annals, under 781 and 790. The explanation may be accidental reproduction, or two men of the same name successively holding office.

King Of Munster
The kings of Munster ( ga, Rí Mumhan), ruled from the establishment of Munster during the Irish Iron Age, until the High Middle Ages. According to Gaelic traditional history, laid out in works such as the '' Book of Invasions'', the earliest king of Munster was Bodb Derg of the Tuatha Dé Danann. From the Gaelic peoples, an Érainn kindred known as the Dáirine (also known as Corcu Loígde and represented today in seniority by the Ó hEidirsceoil), provided several early monarchs including Cú Roí. In a process in the ''Cath Maige Mucrama'', the Érainn would lose out in the 2nd century AD to the Deirgtine, ancestors of the Eóganachta. Munster during this period was classified as part of '' Leath Moga'', or the southern-half, while other parts of Ireland were ruled mostly by the Connachta. After losing Osraige to the east, Cashel was established as the capital of Munster by the Eóganachta. This kindred ruled without interruption until the 10th century. Although the Hi ...

Feidlimid Mac Cremthanin
Fedelmid mac Crimthainn was the King of Munster between 820 and 846. He was numbered as a member of the Céli Dé, an abbot of Cork Abbey and Clonfert Abbey, and possibly a bishop. After his death, he was later considered a saint in some martyrologies. Early Kingship Fedelmid was of the Cenél Fíngin sept of the Eóganacht Chaisil branch of the Eóganachta, and he is noted as having assumed the sovereignty of Munster in 820. In 823, in co-operation with Bishop Artrí mac Conchobar of Armagh, he had the " Law of St. Patrick" established in Munster, and sacked the monastery, that of Gailline of the Britons, in modern County Offaly. The Dealbhna Breatha was burnt by Fedelmid in 825. In 827, there is the first of a number of royal meetings between Fedelmid and Conchobar mac Donnchada, of the Southern Uí Néill, King of Tara or High King of Ireland. In 830, Fedelmid was back burning monasteries--this time it was probably that of Fore Abbey in modern County Westmeath, while ...
