"The youngest of the Three Collas, who was named Colla Meann. was father of Mughdorn or Mourne, from whom was named the ancient district of Crioch-Mughdorn or Cree-Mourne, i.e. the (crioch or) country of the people called Mughdorna. The name of that ancient district is in Cremorne barony, county Monaghan.^[1]

By the 11th and 12th centuries the Mugdorna had become subordinate to the Ui Chremthainn, ruled by the powerful Ó Cearbhaill (English: O'Carroll). The last king of Mugdorna, Maolruanaigh Ó Machainen (O'Machoiden), is recorded in the Annals of Ulster as being slain in 1110.
