Fearghus Ó Fearghail

Fearghus Ó Fearghail, Irish scribe, fl. c. 1550. Fearghus mac Rudhraighe Ó Fearghail was a member of one of the three unrelated septs surnamed Ó Fearghail in medieval Ireland. He identifies himself quite clearly on f. 1v of MS 1467. Other notes by him, or by Rudhraidhe Ó Fearghail (his father or grandfather), appear at ff. 6v, 7v, 9v, 10v, 12v, 17r, 21v and 25v. He compares his writing with that of the MS's author, Dubhgall Albanach mac mhic Cathail (thought be a member of the MacMhuirich bardic family), and writes a short prayer. Nothing else appears to be known of him.
