Lorcán mac Cathail (blinded 864) was a King of Uisnech and Mide of the Clann Cholmáin. Lorcán ruled in as King of Mide from 862–864. His exact dynastic affiliations are unknown. The death of a certain Cathal mac Conchobair is mentioned in the annals in 843. If this was his father he may have been the grandson of the High King Conchobar mac Donnchada (died 833). Upon the death of Máel Ruanaid mac Donnchada Midi of Mide in 843, a succession dispute broke out. Whether the mention of Cathals's death in that year by the annals implies that Cathal died as part of this dispute or was the heir (he would have been senior in the clan at that time) and his death led to the dispute, is not mentioned. Lorcán did succeed to the throne himself in 862 possibly as senior heir.

| - Lorcán mac Cathail (blinded 864) was a King of Uisnech and Mide of the Clann Cholmáin. Lorcán ruled in as King of Mide from 862–864. His exact dynastic affiliations are unknown. The death of a certain Cathal mac Conchobair is mentioned in the annals in 843. If this was his father he may have been the grandson of the High King Conchobar mac Donnchada (died 833). Upon the death of Máel Ruanaid mac Donnchada Midi of Mide in 843, a succession dispute broke out. Whether the mention of Cathals's death in that year by the annals implies that Cathal died as part of this dispute or was the heir (he would have been senior in the clan at that time) and his death led to the dispute, is not mentioned. Lorcán did succeed to the throne himself in 862 possibly as senior heir. The new High King was Áed Findliath (died 877) of the northern Uí Néill kindred of the Cenél nEógain. He however met much resistance from members of the southern Uí Néill. Lorcán mac Cathail, allied himself with Amlaib, Ímar and Auisle (the leaders of the Norse) against Flann mac Conaing of Brega. Flann was a former ally of Dublin, and still Áed's most important ally in the central part of Ireland. Lorcán and his Norse allies plundered Brega in 863, and in 864 Conchobar mac Donnchada, (called the other king of Mide) presumably an ally of Flann against Lorcán, was captured and drowned near Clonard on Amlaibhs order. Áed led an host to Míde, captured Lorcán and blinded him. As a result, Lorcán had to abdicate. It is not known when he died. One of his sons, who is unnamed, is mentioned as being responsible for the killing of the heir of the high king Flann Sinna in 901. In connection with this event the historian Charles-Edwards advances the theory that Lorcán was actually a member of the Luigne tribe as his son is called one of the kings of Luigne. If so, then the theory is that Lorcán was appointed as the representative of Máel Sechnaill mac Maíl Ruanaid to administer Mide while he was high king. However the Annals of the Four Masters do not refer to him as king of luigne but as the son of the King of Mide. This theory could explain why Conchobar mac Donnchada was called the other king of Mide in the notice of his drowning by the Vikings in 864. He may have been the rightful heir to Mide but his dynastic association with the Clann Cholmáin is also uncertain (en)
- Rí Uisnigh agus Rí na Mí de Clann Cholmáin ba ea Lorcán mac Cathail (dallta 864). Bhí sé i gcoróin mar rí na Mí ón mbliain 862 go dtí 864. Ní fios go cruinn cérbh iad a ghaoil. Luaitear sna hannála go bhfuair Cathal mac Conchobair éigin bás sa bhliain 843. Dá mba athair Lorcáin é, b'fhéidir gur gharmhac an Ardrí Conchúr mac Donnchadha (bás 833) é Lorcán. Tar éis bhás Mhaoil Rúnaí mhic Donnchadha na Mí sa bhliain 843, tharla achrann chomharbachta. Is doiléir é an bhfuair Cathal bás de bharr an achrainn, nó arbh eisean an rídhamhna agus gur tharla an achrann mar thoradh a bháis. Pé scéal é, rinneadh rí de Lorcán sa bhliain 862, mar rídhamhna b'fhéidir. Chur an chuid dá mhuintir ó dheas i gcoinne an Ardrí nua, Aodh Fionnliath (bás 877) de Cineál Eoghain. Rinne Lorcán mac Cathail comhaontas le Lochlannaigh Átha Cliath, Amhlaoibh, Íomhar agus Auisle in éadan Fhlainn mhic Conaing as Breá, iar chomhghuaillí Átha Cliath agus fís ionadaí Aodha is tábhachtaí i lár na tíre. Rinne Lorcán creach ar Bhreá sa bhliain 863. Sa bhliain 864, gar de Cluain Ioraird agus ar ord Amhlaoibh, gabhadh agus bádh Chonchúr mac Donnchadha, a glaodh leith-ri Mide air, is amhlaidh chomhghuaillí Fhlainn. Chuaigh Aodh le slua mór i Mí isteach, ghabh sé Lorcán agus dhall sé é. B'éigean do Lorcán dá bharr euro as a choróin. Ní fios cathain ní conas a bhfuair sé bás. Insítear gur mharaigh duine de mac Lorcáin neamhainmnithe ríoghdhamhna an Ardrí king Flash Sionna sa bhliain 901. Molann an staraí Charles-Edwards gur bhall de dhream é Lorcán, óir go dtugtar an teideal rí Luigne don mhac. Más fíor, moltar gur cheap an tArdrí , Lorcán mar ionadaí sa Mhí. Ní thugtar an teideal úd don mhac i nAnnála na gCeithre Máistrí ámh, ach mac rí na Mí ina ionad sin. Dá mba fhíor seo, bheadh seo an fáth go dtugadh an teideal 'leath-rí' do Chonchúr mac Donnchadha. B'fhéidir gur rídhamhna dlisteanach na Mí é, ach ní léir a ghaol le Clann Cholmáin. (ga)
