=== Life Sketch ===
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathal_mac_%C3%81edo:
Cathal mac Áedo Flaind Chathrach (died 627) was a King of Cashel in Munster from the Glendamnach sept of the Eoganachta.
He was the son of Áed Fland Cathrach and grandson of Coirpre Cromm mac Crimthainn (died 577) a previous king of Cashel.
He succeeded to the throne on the death of Fíngen mac Áedo Duib in 618.
According to an old saga poem Mór of Munster and the Violent Death of Cuanu mac Ailchine, he married the widow of his predecessor Mór Muman (died 636) who was the daughter of Áed Bennán mac Crimthainn (died 618) of the Loch Lein Eoganachta of West Munster thereby assuring his right to rule at Cashel.
Cathal had seven sons including Cathal Cú-cen-máthair mac Cathaíl (died 665) a king of Cashel.
