Notes - From the Annals of the Four Masters: Slays then reigning King Caelbhadh and becomes High King of Ireland. King Eochaidh had two wives: Mongfinn, the daughter of Fidhach of the royal house of Munster, by whom he had four sons, and Carinna, daughter of Sachell Balb, King of the Saxons of Briton, by whom he had son Niall, ancestor of all the Ui Neill. From "Clan Mac Meanmain - Milesian Genealogy": ... or Muigh Meadhoin ("Slaves Lord") King of Tara living 360AD, earned his nickname by slave raids on Roman Britain. In one raid he carried off and married (2nd wife) the Princess Cartha Cais Dubh or Carinna (mother of son Niall Noigiallach), who was despised by his 1st wife, Mong Fionn, who bore him his first three and last (5th) sons.
