But there is no O Breislen surname associated with this passage on the Cenel Conaill in O'Clery - .h. Tonnaigh or .h. Tanaigh is the only surname associated with the Muinter Breislen in O'Clery. This surname is O Tunney, on the borders of Sligo & Donegal. The O Breslens later appear as herenaghs of Inishkeel parish in Donegal and also appear prominently in the records of nearby Fermanagh County. They were dispossesed of their territory of Fanad in Donegal by a branch of the O'Donnells headed by the Fer Leginn O'Donnell (1281, 1303), and later by the MacSweeneys of Scotland, a gallowglass sept.
