About Murtagh Roe O'Neill

Murtagh Roe O'Neill (Irish: Muircheartach Ruadh Ó Néill) was a lord of Clandeboye in medieval Ireland. He succeeded his father Brian Ballagh O'Neill who died in 1425 to the lordship of Clandeboye. Before O'Neill could take control he and his second-in-command, his younger brother Hugh Boy, had to remove their uncle Henry Caoch O'Neill who strongly challenged their claim.
