This person is shown as the "father" of Solmund. It seems more certain from other sources that Margad (Eckmarcach) was the father of Solmund - although Ashley skips a generation and shows Margad as the father of Gilleadamnan (whom is shown in this database as the grandson of Margad). Since neither Mearrdha or Margat show a spouse, I have supposed the conflict could be resolved if Mearrdha were female, rather than male - and the wife of Margad. So that is how I have set it for now, until proven otherwise. (IJL - Mar 2001)
Conflict on father of Solmund. However, it could be explained if Mearrdha or Eckmarcach was female and these two were married to each other. Both are indicated as male.
