Biography
- Proper sourcing in progress
Muircheartach O'Neill was the son of Aedh 'Macaemh Tóinleasg', King of Cenel Eoghain. He died in 1202, killed by Mac Lochlainin. [1]
- Note-The MacLochlainns were O'Neills, not O'Briens. Muirchertach was the successor of Toirdelbach, but not his son. The kingship of Ireland wasn't a succession by birth, it was a power struggle between warlords of rival clans.

removed as father of https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/O'Neill-905 strange to find sources for supposed parents and supposed children, but nothing yet for this chap at all
the genealogy given in (the peerage) needs confirmation
