Toirdhealbhach Ó Conchobhair (died 1239) was a King of Connacht.
Toirdhealbhach (Turlough) was a son of Ruaidhrí Ó Conchobhair, King of Connacht.[1] A daughter of Toirdhealbhach, Bean Mhídhe, seems to have married Maol Mhuire an Sparáin, son of Murchadh Mac Suibhne.[2] The record of this union appears to be evidence that Toirdhealbhach utilised overseas military support from Clann Suibhne in his bid to claim the kingship of Connacht.[3] In 1225, Toirdhealbhach attained the kingship with the aid of Aodh Méith Ó Néill, and was inaugurated at Carnfree.[4] Three years later, in 1228, Toirdhealbhach was expelled from the kingship and replaced by his younger brother, Aodh, who was likewise inaugurated at Carnfree.[5]
1190 - Melaghlin O'Naghtan and Gilla-Barry O'Slowey were slain by Turlough, the son of Roderic O'Conor.
1202 - Turlough, the son of Roderic O'Conor, escaped from confinement; and Cathal Crovderg made peace with him, and gave him land. He afterwards expelled him, but, at the intercession of the English, made peace with him at once.
1207 - Meyler Oge, Murtough O'Brien, and Turlough, the son of Roderic O'Conor, made a predatory incursion into Tir-Fachrach Aidhne, and plundered fifteen ballys (townlands).
1210 - Turlough, the son of Roderic O'Conor, took a prey in Moylurg, and carried it with him to Seghais the Curlieus, to his brother Dermot. Hugh, the son of Cathal, pursued him; but Turlough fled before him to the North.
1225 - ...Thence he proceeded to Carnfree, where Turlough, the son of Roderic, was inaugurated...
1239 - Turlough, the son of Roderic O'Conor (King of Connaught), died.
