Fingal mac Gofraid

Fingal mac Gofraid,〔Oram (2000).〕 also known as Finghal mac Gofraid,〔Forte; Oram; Pedersen (2005).〕 and his father, Gofraid mac Sitriuc (died about 1070),〔Woolf (2004); Oram (2000).〕 also known as Gofraid mac Sitreaca,〔Forte; Oram; Pedersen (2005).〕 were late eleventh-century rulers of the Kingdom of the Isles. Although one source states that Gofraid's father was named Sitriuc, there is reason to suspect that this could be an error of some sort. There is also uncertainty as to which family Gofraid belonged to. He could have been a member of either the Meic Amlaíb or the Meic Ragnaill, rival Norse-Gaelic dynasties who bitterly contested control of Dublin and the Isles in the eleventh century. The former family appears to have cooperated with Diarmait mac Maíl na mBó, King of Leinster, whilst the latter was closely connected with Diarmait's bitter adversaries, the Uí Briain.
If Gofraid was a member of the Meic Amlaíb, he may well have been installed as king by Diarmait after the latter oversaw the expulsion of Echmarcach mac Ragnaill, the previous Meic Ragnaill King of Dublin and the Isles. Gofraid's membership in the Meic Amlaíb could also explain apparent amiable relationship that he and Fingal appear to have enjoyed with Gofraid Crobán, their immediate successor in the Isles. Gofraid's membership with this family would also explain attack on Mann in 1073, conducted by the Uí Briain and a possible member of the Meic Ragnaill.
If Gofraid was a member of the Meic Ragnaill, it is possible that he is identical to Gofraid ua Ragnaill, King of Dublin, a contemporary Meic Ragnaill who is known to have reigned in Dublin during a period of Uí Briain overlordship after Diarmait's death. This identification could mean that Gofraid immediately succeeded Echmarcach in both Dublin and the Isles after the latter's fall. Gofraid's membership with the Meic Ragnaill would mean that the aforesaid invasion of Mann in 1073 was instead a Meic Amlaíb incursion—albeit one with Uí Briain backing—rather than a Meic Ragnail initiative.
Gofraid is stated in one source to have died in about 1070, after which Fingal succeeded him. Fingal later appears to have fended off an attack upon Mann by men with Irish connections. At some point in the 1070s the kingdom was conquered by Gofraid Crobán, although the circumstances of this event are uncertain. Although it is possible that the latter overthrew Fingal, this is by no means certain. In fact, the throne may well have been vacant when Gofraid Crobán conducted his campaigns to gain the kingship. Whatever the case, there is reason to suspect that descendants of Fingal ruled the Kingdom of the Rhinns following his demise.
==Uncertain parentage and identity==

Gofraid is specifically mentioned twice by the ''Chronicle of Mann'': once as "''Godredum filium Sytric''", and once as "''Godredus filius Sytric''".〔Duffy (2006) pp. 51–52; Hudson, BT (2005) p. 171; Munch; Goss (1874) pp. 50–51.〕 Although these passages seem to show that his father's name was Sitriuc, the first instance of "''Sytric''" is crossed out, and the corresponding marginal notes beside both passages read "''Fingal''".〔Duffy (2006) pp. 51–52; Forte; Oram; Pedersen (2005) pp. 232 n. 40; Hudson, BT (2005) p. 171; ''Cotton MS Julius A VII'' (n.d.).〕 These passages, therefore, may be evidence that Gofraid was either the son of a man named Sitriuc, or else the son of a man named Fingal.〔Duffy (2006) p. 52.〕 In fact, it is also possible that the marginal note refers to a place name rather than a personal name. For example, the notes could refer to Fine Gall,〔Hudson, BT (2005) p. 171.〕 Dublin's agriculturally rich northern hinterland.〔Downham (2005); Hudson, BT (2005) p. 171.〕 The notes, therefore, could be evidence that Gofraid was a native Dubliner rather than a Manxman.〔 If Gofraid's father was indeed named Sitriuc, there are several contemporaneous candidates.〔Duffy (2006) p. 52; Hudson, BT (2005) p. 171.〕
One particular candidate is Sitriuc mac Ímair, King of Waterford (died 1022), however there is no evidence that this man had a son named Gofraid.〔Duffy (2006) p. 52.〕 Another candidate is Sitriuc mac Amlaíb, King of Dublin (died 1042).〔Duffy (2006) p. 52; Forte; Oram; Pedersen (2005) p. 231; Hudson, BT (2005) pp. 83 fig. 3, 171; Oram (2000) p. 18.〕 Although this man is known to have had a son named Gofraid, the latter is recorded to have been killed in 1036. This Sitriuc, however, is known to have had two sons named Amlaíb, one who died in 1013, and the other who died in 1036.〔Duffy (2006) p. 52; Hudson, BT (2005) pp. 83 fig. 3, 171.〕 In fact, it was not uncommon for parents to have several children with the same name,〔Hudson, BT (2005) p. 171.〕 and it is possible that Sitriuc mac Amlaíb was the father of not only two Amlaíbs but two Gofraids as well.〔Duffy (2006) p. 52; Hudson, BT (2005) p. 171.〕 Another candidate is an alleged descendant of Sitriuc mac Amlaíb's brother, Glún Iairn mac Amlaíb, King of Dublin (died 989). Specifically, according to a genealogical tract preserved by the seventeenth-century scribe Dubhaltach Óg Mac Fhirbhisigh (died 1617), Glún Iairn had an otherwise unknown son named Sitriuc, a man who conceivably could have been Gofraid's father.〔Hudson, BT (2005) pp. 83 fig. 3, 171–172; Bugge (1905) pp. 4, 11.〕
Another possibility is that Gofraid is identical to the contemporaneous like-named King of Dublin, Gofraid ua Ragnaill (died 1075).〔Duffy (2006) p. 57; Moody; Martin; Byrne (2005) p. 468 n. 4; Beuermann (2002) p. 433.〕 The latter's name is recorded variously in the Irish annals: the ''Annals of Inisfallen'' calls him "''Goffraid mc. meicc Ragnaill''",〔''Annals of Inisfallen'' (2010) § 1072.6; ''Annals of Inisfallen'' (2008) § 1072.6; Duffy (2006) p. 57; Duffy (1992) p. 102.〕 and "''Goffraid h-ua Regnaill''",〔''Annals of Inisfallen'' (2010) § 1075.2; ''Annals of Inisfallen'' (2008) § 1075.2; Duffy (2006) p. 57; Duffy (1992) p. 102 n. 44.〕 whilst the ''Annals of Ulster'' calls him "''Gofraigh mc. Amhlaim uel mc Raghnaill''".〔''The Annals of Ulster'' (2012) § 1075.1; ''The Annals of Ulster'' (2008) § 1075.1; Duffy (2006) p. 57; Duffy (1992) p. 102 n. 44.〕 Although the evidence regarding Gofraid ua Ragnaill could indicate that his father was named Amlaíb, who was in turn the son of a man named Ragnall,〔Hudson, BT (2005) p. 130 fig. 4.〕 the latter annal-entry literally states that he was the "son of Amlaíb or son of Ragnall", potentially indicating confusion in regard to his parentage.〔Duffy (2006) p. 57.〕 Whatever the case, the aforesaid annal-entries suggest that Gofraid ua Ragnaill was a member of the Meic Ragnaill, and closely related to Echmarcach mac Ragnaill, King of Dublin and the Isles (died 1064–1065).〔Duffy (2006) p. 57.〕 Gofraid ua Ragnaill, therefore, could have been the son of a brother of Echmarcach named either Amlaíb or Sitriuc,〔Duffy (2006) p. 57; Hudson, BT (2005) p. 130 fig. 4; Duffy (1992) p. 102.〕 or else perhaps even a son of Echmarcach himself.〔Duffy (2006) p. 57.〕
