My agnatic lineage genealogical origins trace to Norway, at least as far back in history as the 5th-century AD. They, known by the Irish as the Finngaill, conquered the region around Donegal (Irish: Dún na nGall, meaning ‘fort of the foreigner’), Ireland, during the latter half of the 9th century (thereafter, an exclusive Viking enclave I would imagine). My agnatic forebears migrated from Orkney, Scotland, to Donegal, Ireland, during the latter half of the 12th century. The first patriarch to settle there was Kolli Kollson (born c. 1150; Thorfinn the Black’s 2nd great-grandson). He and his descendants’ Irish surname became Coileain (or O’Coileain). According to the pedigree, the subsequent generation resided in Cork, then a Viking sea trading port, before the clan returned to Donegal after the next or same generation. Their descendants immigrated to England during the early 14th century (see Collins (Kollsson) Agnatic Norwegian Lineage (650 – present) for more information).
Thorfinn briefly allied with his cousin Mac Bethad mac Findlaích (ca. 1031 – 1057) King of Scotland, Shake-speare’s “MacBeth” in their pact to kill their cousin King Duncan, son of Crínán of Atholl, Lay Abbott of Dunkeld (980 – 1045) Primogenitor of Dunkeld Dynasty. Soon after the battle fought between the threesome at Elgin in the summer of 1040, Macbeth was crowned King of Alba (today’s Scotland) after Duncan was slain.
The Battle of Clontarf pitted ThorFinn’s father, Sigurd “The Stout” Hlodvirsson (c. 960 – 23 April 1014), leader of the Viking army, against his cousin Brian Boru (941 – 1014) Founder of the O’Brien Dynasty of Irish High Kings, leader of the Irish army. Both were slain during the course of the battle that concluded in a decisive victory for the Irish.
Vikings would not dominate as rulers of Ireland until their Norman (Norsemen) descendants invaded the island in 1171 under the command of Richard “Strongbow” de Clare, Earl of Pembroke (1130 – 1176) Justiciar of Ireland. The invasion marked the beginning of the end of the High Kings rulership of Ireland that putatively commenced three millennia before.
Thorfinn Torf-Einarsson, Sigurd’s paternal grandfather, had “skull-splitter” as a grisly sobriquet. Personally, I would have kept my distance from him even if he looked like he was having anything less than a bad hair day (which probably accounts for his living to advanced old age).
