Background Donellan was born in the county of Galway, a son of Mael Sechlainn D nall in, by his wife Sisly, daughter of William Cellaigh of Calla. He was a descendant of Domnallan mac Maelbrigdi . He was entered as Nehemiah Daniel on 13 January 1579 80 at King s College, Cambridge , and shortly afterwards matriculated in the same name. Subsequently he migrated to Catharine Hall, where he took the degree of B.A. in 1581 2. Career On his return to his native country he acted for some time as coadjutor to William Maolalaidh , archbishop of Tuam, and afterwards, on the recommendation of Thomas, earl of Ormonde, he was appointed the successor of that prelate, by letters patent dated 17 August 1595. Two days later he received restitution of the temporalities. In the writ of privy seal directing his appointment, it was alleged that he was very fit to communicate with the people in their mother tongue, and a very meet instrument to retain and instruct them in duty and religion and that he had also taken pains in translating and putting to the press the Communion Book and New Testament in the Irish language, which her majesty greatly approved of. It is asserted by Teige Dubhag in see Dugan , who drew up a pedigree of the Donellan family, that he was never in holy orders, but probably the genealogist may have been led to make this startling assertion simply by an unwillingness to acknowledge the orders of the reformed church. In addition to his see the archbishop held by dispensation the rectory of Kilmore in the county of Kilkenny, and the vicarages of Castle doagh in the diocese of Ossory, and of Donard in the diocese of Dublin.
