Síol Anmchadha was a sub-kingdom
or lordship of Hy-Many, and ruled by an off-shoot of the Ui Maine called the Síol Anmchadha ("the seed of Anmchadh"),
from whom the territory took its name.At its largest extent, the Kings of Síol Anmchadha ruled all the land on the
west shore of Lough Derg (Shannon) as far south as Thomond; the land between the Shannon and Suck rivers; and a corridor of
land, known as Lusmagh, across the the Shannon in Munster, in the direction of Birr. The ruling dynasty later took the surname
Ó Madadháin, anglicised as Maddan or Madden. In the later medieval era they were sometime vassals of the Earl
of Ulster and their successors, The Clanricardes. The name Síol Anmchadha survives to the present day in the placename
Baile Mór Síol Anmchadha, the Irish language version of Lawrencetown, County Galway.
