FIRST ANCIENT MONARCHS OF IRELAND SECOND ANCIENT MONARCHS OF IRELAND THIRD ANCIENT MONARCHS OF IRELAND FOURTH ANCIENT MONARCHS OF IRELAND LORDS OF THE ISLES KING OF JERUSALEM (This material may be protected by Copyright law - Title 17, US Code.) "The Great King" 421 B.C. "Hugony the Great" Macha Mongruadh was foster mother of Ughaine Mor. Ugaine "the Great" was the 66th Monarch of Ireland. Was called Mor on accunt of his extensive dominions, being sovereign of all the Islands of Western Europe. Was married to Caesair, daughter to the King of France, and by her had issue, twenty-two sons and three daughters. In order to prevent these children encroaching on each other he divided the Kingdom into twenty-five portions allotting to each his (or her) distinct inheritance. By means of this division the taxes of the country were collected during the succeeding 300 years. All the sons died withoutissue except two, Laeghaire Lorc, ancestor of all the Leinster Heremonians; and Cobthach Caolbhreach, from whom the Heremonians of Leath Cuinn, Meath, Ulster, and Conacht derive their pedigree. In the early ages the Irish Kings made many military expeditions into foreign countries. Ugain Mor, called by O'Flaherty, in his Ogygia, "Hugonius Magnus," was contemporary with Alexander the Great; and is stated to have sailed with a fleet into the Mediterranean landed his forces in Africa, and also attacked Sicily; and having proceeded to Gaul, was arried to Caesair, daughter of the King of the Gauls. Hugonius was buried at Cruachan. The Irish sent, during the Punic wars, auxiliary troops to their Celtic Brethren, the Gauls; who in their alliance with the Carthaginians under Hannibal, fought against the Roman armies in Spain and Italy. Ugain was at length, B.C. 593, slain by Badhbhchadh, who failed to secure the fruits of his murder, the Irish Throne, as he was executed by order of Laeghaire Lorc, the murdered Monarch's son, who became the 68th Monarch. Slain: by Badhbhchadh, he was executed by order of Laeghaire Lorc. Ugaine married Caesair Cruthach Queen of Ireland. Caesair was born in Ancient Ireland. Their children were: Colethach Caol-Bhreach, 69th Monarch of Ireland. ---------------- Ugaine Mor (or Ugain Magnus) "the Great" responsible for creating the 25 divisions of Ireland for his children of which only two were sons. (from Milesian Genealogy) --------------------- XXIV. Ugaine Mor reigned as the sixty-sixth Monarch of Ireland. Among the many legends related by the ancient Irish historians is one of his leading a fleet to the Mediterranean, landing forces in Africa, and attacking Sicily. He then proceeded to Gaul and married Caesair, daughter of the King of Gaul, which covered the territory of modern France, and by whom he had twenty one sons and three daughters. Only two of these sons had issue, one being Cobthach Caolbhreagh, who became the ancester of numerous families in Meach, Ulster and Conacht, as well as of the Kings of Scotland. The other son was: Leaghair Lorc. of whom father. (J. O'Hart "Irish Pedigrees," Vol. I, p. 354.)
