He married CAESAIR. She was born in France, and died Deceased in Ireland.
Notes for KING OF IRELAND UGAINE MOR HEREMON:
Ugaine Mor, son of Eochaidh Buadhach, of the Line of Heremon. This Ugaine (or Hugony) the Great was the 66th Monarch of Ireland from 633 BC. Was called Mor on account of his extensive dominions, being Sovereign of all of the islands of Western Europe. Was married to Caesair (or Kesair) daughter of the King of France and by her had issue- twenty-two sons and three daughters. In order to prevent these children encroaching on each other he divided the Kingdom into twenty-five portions allotting to each their inheritance. By these divisions the taxes were collected for the following 300 years.
All the sons died without issue except Laeghaire Lore (Laery) ancestor of all the Leinster Heremonians; and Cobthach Caolbhreagh (Covac) from whom the Heremonians of Leath Cuinn (Meath, Ulster and Connaght) derive their pedigree.
Ugaine was, at length, slain by Badhbhchadh in 593 BC who failed to secure the fruits of his murder, the Irish Throne, being executed on the order of son Laeghaire Lore.
In the early ages the Irish Kings made military expeditions into foreign countries. Ugaine Mor, called by O'Flaherty, in his 'Ogygia,' "Hugonius Magnus," was contemporary with Alexander the Great; and is stated to have sailed with a fleet into the Mediterranean, landed forces in Africa, and also attacked Sicily; and having proceeded to Gaul, was married to Caesair, daughter of the King of the Gauls. Hugonius was buried at Cruachan. The Irish sent, during the Punic Wars, auxiliary troops to their Celtic Brethren, the Gauls; who in their alliance with the Carthaginians under Hannibal, fought against the Roman armies in Spain and Italy. - Connellan.

Notes for KING OF IRELAND COBTHACH CAOLBHREAGH HEREMON:
69th King of Ireland. Slain by Maion, his nephew, in 541BC.
Also called Covac. His brother Laeghaire Lore inherited the kingdom, but Covac, consumed and sick with envy, sought to Slay him, and asked the advice of a Druid as to how this could be managed, since Laery, justly suspicious, never would visit him without an armed escort. The druid bade him feign death, and have word sent to his brother that he was on his bier ready for burial. This Covac did, and when Laery arrived and bent over the supposed corpse Covac stabbed him to the heart, and slew also one of his sons, Ailill (pronounced 'E;-yill'), who attended him. Thus Covac ascended the throne, and straightway his illness left him. (Celtic - Myths and Legends - T W Rolleston [Senate Press])
