      ===Ancestry===

      '''Radnailt of Dublin's Ancestry by Stewart Baldwin'''
      The other main "Gateway Ancestor" to Ireland is Radnailt, daughter of t h e N o r s e Dublin prince Amlaib by his wife Maelcorcre, daughter of Dunla i n g m a c T uathail, king of Leinster, whose ancestry is given in the Life o f G r u f f udd ap Cynan (her son, ancestor of numerous Welsh and English fa mi l i e s ). Since most of her immediate ancestors were also ancestors of E v e o f L e i nster, it does not take much additional room to give her chart t o o . E v e o f Leinster does not share Radnailt's Dublin Norse ancestors, w h o a r e g i ven here to the earliest proven generation. Stewart Baldwin. Note in Soc.Genealogy.Medieval dated 2/26/98, r e p o s t ing an item posted 27 July 1996.

      :5. The twelfth century "Cogadh Gaedhel re Gailaibh" [ed. Todd, Rolls S e r i e s 4 8, London 1867], an independent source, confirms that Sitric was m a r r i e d to a daughter of Brian, but does not give her name, nor confirm t h a t s h e w as Amlaib's mother.:32. The contemporary records consistently r e f e r t o S itric (Sigtrygg) as being a grandson of Imar (Ivar) without id e n t i f ying his father. The possible identity of the intervening generat i o n w a s d iscussed at length in this newsgroup some time ago.:64. There i s n o c o n t emporary evidence for the parentage of Ivar. The mythical Rag na rr L o t h brok, his alleged father, is of very dubious historicity.

      :3. No Irish source mentions this marriage, or the marriage of Radnail t t o C y n a n ap Iago. While it would be nice to have confirmation of the se m a r r i ages in a more contemporary source, there does not seem to be a ny g o o d r e ason to doubt them. The close connections of Gruffudd ap Cyn an w i t h D u blin are well documented.
