General Notes
[charlemegne.FTW]
Gormlaith ingen Mac Carrach Calma? Carrach Calma was a nicknam e of Donnchad (d. 969), a great-grandson of the Ui Neill king Fl ann Sinna. The "Ban Senchus" calls Gormlaith a daughter of Carra ch Calma, which is chronologically impossible, and a word has ac cidently dropped from the account of BS 198, which calls her a d aughter of Mac Carrach Calma. It is unfortunate that the exact l ine of descent from Carrach Calma is unknown, for it would giv e a descent from the Ui Neill kings of Ireland.
