Reading the biographies of his fathers three wives his mother is listed as Dubhchobhleigh not Derbforgaill, who was the mother of Turlough’s first two children, are the biographies wrong or the profiles wrong?

Briain-6 and OBrien-12 appear to represent the same person because: same name & data - LNAB "ua Briain " because we are using language (Irish) at time of birth see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conchobar_Ua_Briain

OBrien-12 and Briain-6 are not ready to be merged because: Needs more research on LNAB

OBrien-12 and Briain-6 appear to represent the same person because: Duplicates.

O'Brien-359 and OBrien-12 do not represent the same person because: The sources do not show the LNAB as either OBrien or O'Brien but instead O' Briain. This should be set as an unmerged match until the proper LNAB is determined.

There is a discussion here: https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/678559/can-pre-1500-certified-member-merge-obrien-359-into-obrien-12
