Life
He was held in high regard by Henry VII of England, who in 1484 "authorized" (encouraged) him, along with his kinsman Cormac MacTeige, Lord of Muskerry, to receive the homage of the various Irish lords and chiefs of the region.[2]
It was for Finghin and his wife Katherine that the famous Book of Lismore was compiled.[3]
