a serious weak link in the attempt to connect Domnall here is that there is no good evidence that Richard de Burgh was a maternal grandson of Domnall Mor Ua Briain [Ref: Stewart Baldwin SGM 8/29/2001-030404]

1228-32: Justiciar of Ireland [Ref: CP XII/2 p171(f)]

Adrian Channing: The mother of Richard de Burgh is probably an unnamed daughter (Mor?) of Donal More O'Brien. Clarence Ellis' "Hubert de Burgh, A Study in Constancy" (1952, Phoenix House Ltd), shows that the then accepted father of Richard, William Fitzadelm de Burgo (one of whose marriages was to Isabel base daughter of Richard I), cannot work. William de Burgh, (Richard's father) was probably son of a Walter de Burgh (died bfr 1180) a small holder in Bourgh next to Ayleham, Norfolk by Alice (died bfr 1230, bur Walsingham).
Stewart Baldwin: Good evidence for this is lacking, and there is good reason to doubt this claim, as has been discussed in this forum before. The relevant primary source (from the Book of Lecan) is that Domnall Mor had a daughter (unnamed) who was the mother of Richard, son of William, from whom are descended the Clann Ricaird. The problem is that the usual reconstruction of the de Burgh genealogy (e.g., the tables in the New History of Ireland) make this Richard (i.e., the one who was ancestor of Clann Ricaird) a same-named brother Richard de Burgh, lord of Ulster (quite likely by a different mother).
Thus, there appears to be no good evidence that the Richard de Burgh, lord of Ulster, was a grandson of Domnall Mor. (Unfortunately, no documentation is supplied for the tables in the New History of Ireland, making it hard to follow up, but a reexamination of the early de Burghs using primary evidence would be interesting.)
Adrian Channing: I follow the pedigree given in _A History of Medieval Ireland_ by Edmund Curtis, which does not seem to conflict with the problem you quote from the Book of Lecan, and also agrees to CP Vol 12 p 171 as far as that goes:
Wm de Burgo (de Burgh) (-1206) m d of Donal More O'Briwn
|
Rd (I) Ld of Connacht (-1242) m Egidia de Lacy
|
A) Rd (II) (dsp 1248)
B) Walter Earl of Ulster etc (-1271)
C) William Oge (-1270) and left Wm Liath ancestor of Lords Clanrickard Stewart Baldwin: The problem is that this does not agree with the best Irish genealogical sources, which show William with two sons named Richard, the famous one who died in 1243 and another Richard who was ancestor of the Clanricard branch. This latter Richard is the one apparently referred to by the Book of Lecan, leaving as uncertain the mother of the elder Richard (ancestor of Edward IV, among many others). The table in the New History of Ireland has it the same way, with a dotted line, and the comment: "The origins of the Clanricard line are ont absolutely proven, but the descent given is that in the best genealogical sources and is not contradicted by contemporary sources."
This would indicate that the subject is ripe for more detailed research in the primary sources, which might overturn this picture, but that the best evidence at the current time would indicate that the Richard who was stated in the Book of Lecan to be a grandson of Domnall Mor was NOT Richard lord of Connacht.
The fact that some earlier secondary sources have it otherwise is pretty much irrelevant, in my opinion. Many early histories of Ireland were written without taking proper account of the Irish sources. Any argument that the Richard who was named as the grandson of Domnall Mor in the Book of Lecan was the same person as Richard lord of Connacht needs to be based on arguments from the primary sources.
It would be nice if clear evidence could be found that Richard lord of Connacht was a grandson of Domnall Mor, as that would provide a number of interesting Irish descents that are not available through "Eve" of Leinster, but it would be jumping to conclusions to suggest that such a link is probable on the basis of current research.
