Talk:Clan Moroghoe

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article should be redirected to MacMurrough dynasty. "Clan Moroghoe" is an alternate name that O'Hart accorded the family (O'Hart, volume 1, pages 553, 700, 701). I don't know if any reliable source has even used this name. Google Books just turns up two other hits: a family history and an encyclopedia, both published in the 1930s, neither of which are reliable sources for medieval history.

At the moment "MacMurrough dynasty" is merely a redirect, but I think it could/should expanded into a standalone article - possibly under the title "Mac Murchadha dynasty" or something like that. The thing is that O'Hart is not a reliable source, and should not be used for such an article. There are so many quality sources that deal with the MacMurroughs that we don't need to rely upon outdated and dubious material.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 23:35, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
