Fathadh mac Aonghus (fl. 10th–11th centuries)〔Fathadh's ''floruit'' is uncertain. He is not recorded in the annals, and the genealogies simply refer to him by name, his father been given as Aonghus mac Lomán.〕 was an Irish nobleman. He is the purported ancestor to the Ó Fathaigh/Fahy family of Uí Maine. The first person known bear the surname would appear to be one Cormac mac Maonach (Cormac Ó Fathaigh) who is listed as his great-grandson of the eight generation. However, if it is correct, Fathadh's grandson, Aonghus, or his great-grandson, Flann, would have been its first users. But Fathadh is given as a son of Aonghus mac Lomán, who lived sometime in the sixth, or even fifth, century, hundreds of years before the introduction of surnames in Ireland. ==Notable descendants== *Tadhg an tSleibhe Ó Fathaigh, Chief of the Name, fl. 1620 *Anthony Dominic Fahy, Dominican Priest, missionary in Argentina, 1805–1871 *Pádraig Ó Fathaigh, Intelligence Officer, Irish Republican Army, 1879–1976 *Jim Fahy, RTE News Western Correspondent *Frank Fahey Teachta Dála (TD) for Galway West 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fathadh mac Aonghus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
