St. Gormgal in Ardoilen
...Elsewhere he gives the following list of holy men who rest with St.
Gormgal in Ardoilen, viz. — Moelsuthun, Celechair, Dubthach, Dunadach, Cellach,
Tressach, Ultan, Maelmartin,
Coromach, and Conmach. The Four Masters recording the death of St. Gormgal in
Ardoilen in 1017, style him
the chief Anmchara, sours friend or confessor, of all Ireland…

other religious houses in Ireland; interspersed with memoirs of their several
founders and benefactors, and of their abbots and other superiors, to the time
of their final suppression. Vol.II. W.B. Kelly, Dublin.
Ardoilen, or High Island, is situated about six
miles from the coast of Omey, Connemara, Co. Galway.
Treasacháin
In the MacFirbis genealogies there is also
some appearances of the name Treasachain. However, it is not found in O'Brien
CGH.
Wolfe stated that "The dim. O Treasachain appears to have been in
use in the midlands, but is probably obsolete; at least, it has no distinct angl. form", but I have not
found any other references to it as a surname.
The name of the townland of Artresnahan in the parish of Drummaul in
Co. Antrim translates as Ard Treasacháin 'Treasachán's height'.
Nearby, there is the townland of Tirgracey,
Muckamore (Grange of), Antrim.

Cenel
Treisi (Moy Estuary, Co. Mayo)
Treisi
or Tresi, was the daughter of Nad Froich, King of
Munster and founder of Cashel. Her brother was Oengus (†490/2 AD), the first Christian king of
Munster. She married Amalgaid, King of Connacht and bore him eight sons. They
lived at the Moy estuary, Co. Mayo.
Also stated in the Tribes of Ui Fiachrach is Fearsad Tresi, where
she drowned. It is located below the Abbey of Rafan, parish of Killala, Barony
of Tirawley, County Mayo. There are two round stones
on each side of the fearsad, or channel, to point out its position. At the time
the book was written, it is stated that this name is now forgotten for
centuries, and it is now called Fearsad Raith Bhrain or Fearsad Ratha
Branduibh.

Tribes of Ui Fiachrach
From Amhalgaidh, the
fourth son of Fiachra, are sprung the Hy- Amhalgaidh on the Muaidh, and the
Hy-Becon. This Amhalgaidh had a large family, namely; Fedhlim, Eochaidh of the
two plains (i.e. of the plain of Muirisc, daughter of Liogan, and of the plain
of Muidh, or Muaidh), Eunda, Conall, Aongus, Eoghan, Cormac, and Corrdubh.
These were the eight sons of Tresi, the daughter of Natfraoch, and sister of
Aongus, son of Nadfraoch, king of Munster.
