Academy of Saint Gabriel Report 771

This report is available at http://www.s-gabriel.org/771

Some of the Academy's early reports contain errors that we haven't yet corrected. Please use it with caution.

Greetings,

Here's the information we found about the Irish names you said you were interested in.

We didn't find any examples of "Treasa" or any reason to think that it was used in the Middle Ages. We also didn't find "Ciara," but we did find "Ciar" as an Irish women's name. (1)

Of the names you found later, we did find that "Temair" is a woman's name. We know that it was used in the middle of the 600's, (1) and we are fairly sure that it was used for several centuries after that.

Talan Gwynek, Effric neyn Kenyeoch vc Ralte, Arval Benicoeur, Naitan de Yerdeburc, and Tangwystl verch Morgant Glasvryn contributed to this letter.

We hope this has been helpful, and that we can continue to assist you.

In service,
Alan Fairfax
Academy of S. Gabriel
