=== Life Sketch ===
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ivar_II_of_Waterford-1:
Ivar of Waterford was the Norse king of Waterford (Port Láirge) from at least 969 until his death in 1000[1]
He was twice King of Dublin - c. 989-993 and again 994-995 until expelled by Sigtrygg Silkbeard
His known descendants were:[2]
Gilla Pátraic (died 983) – name suggests association with the Osraige as well as Christian identity Events indicate that Gilla Pátraic mac Donnchada (died 996), was a relation of one of Ivar's wives, as this king of Osraige was slain by Ivar's son Donndubán (who was slain one week later in retaliation) and Domnall mac Faelain, king of the Déisi.
Ragnall (died 995)
Donndubán (died 996) – an extremely rare name, and given the Irish practice of naming first-born sons after their oldest uncle, possibly a nephew of Donndubán mac Cathail. According to a tradition of uncertain provenance which made itself into the Encyclopædia Britannica for several decades, Donndubán mac Ímair, along with his relative Donndubán mac Cathail, are the eponymous ancestors of some of the modern O'Donovan family. No pedigree survives to assess the claim.
Ragnaill mac Ímair, king of Waterford (died 1018) – Ivar's successor
Unknown mac Ragnaill (died 1015)
Ragnall mac Ragnaill, king of Waterford (died 1035) NOTE: Four Masters has death as 1032 See M1031.10 and 1035 See M1035.3
