- [1686], [c. 1790]
Part of Sir John Williams manuscripts
A manuscript transcript, [1686], of Geoffrey Keating's (c. 1569-c. 1644) Forus Feasa ar Éirinn [History of Ireland] (published c. 1634), mostly in the hand of the poet and scribe Eoghan Ó Caoimh (Owen O’Keefe, 1656-1726).
The beginning of the preface and the end of the original transcript are lost; the end has been supplied, [c. 1790], by a second scribe, who has also added a poem on the principal events of Irish history from the Psalter of Cashel. [The date 1790 appears on lib. ii, p. 161.]
Ó Caoimh, Eoghan, 1656-1726
