Kings of Hy-Many
Hy-Many was the name of a kingdom situated in south Connacht , consisting of all of Co.Galway east of Athenry , all of southern and central Co. Roscommon . In pre-history it was believed to have spanned the Shannon, and in the 8th Centuary even breifly extended its dominion west to Galway Bay . It existed as an independant kingdom from pre-historic times, and as a subject kingdom up to the end of the medieval era. The descendants of the last O Cellaigh/O'Kelly Kings of Hy-Many are currently known as the O'Kelly of Gallagh and Tyrcooly, and are Counts of the Holy Roman Empire.
The spelling Hy-Many is used to differenciate it from the Ui Maine , who were its ruling dynasty. The following is an expanding stub listing its kings
