These records were ordered by Fodhla to be 'written' and carefully preserved at Tara. They were added to after each meeting and in King Cormac's time they were named "The Psalter of Tara".

Readers are cautioned to check the original text, as several pedigrees had to be searched in making a line from Milesius to the 10th century in most cases (3) O'Donnell World. On a final note of caution, remember some of the above goes back a very long time! Biblical genealogy and events led Bishop James Ussher (1581-1656), Archbishop of Armagh, Primate of All Ireland, and Vice-Chancellor of Trinity College in Dublin (was highly regarded in his day as a churchman and as a scholar) to the conclusion that the first day of creation was Sunday 23 October 4004 BC, that Adam and Eve were driven from Paradise on Monday 10 November 4004 BC,and that the ark touched down on Mt Ararat on 5 May 1491 BC `on a Wednesday'. In the meantime Milesius had landed in Ireland in 1699 BC and SMIOMGHALL (father of FIACHA LABHRAINNE the 18th Monarch in 1472 BC - (Annals of the Four Masters M3727.1) was around when Noah was landing the Ark. There are no mentions of great floods in the Annals!
