Bhíodh sinsir Uí Chonchúir, .i. Uí Bhriúin agus Síol Mhuireadhaigh, i gceannas sna Connachta - cé nach go leanúnach - idir na blianta 482 agus 956. Tháinig Uí Chonchúir féin chun cinn ó am go céile ón mbliain 967, go leanúnach ó 1102 go 1475. San iomlán, rinneadh díobh tuairim is céad rí Chonnacht,[1] tríocha Cinn na Fine agus beirt Ardríthe na hÉireann, Toirdhealbhach Ua Conchobhair (1088–1156) agus a mhac Ruaidrí Ua Conchobair (c. 1115–1198), an tArdrí deireanach Éireannach.
Le linn na 14ú haoise déanaí, bhí dhá phríomhchlann Uí Chonchúir ann, faoi cheannas Toirdhealbhaigh Rua agus Toirdhealbhaigh Óig (ar a glaodh fosta Toirdhealbhach Donn), seachtú nglúin ó Chathal Crobhdhearg an bheirt acu, sinsir na gclann Uí Chonchúir Rua (anois marbh) agus Uí Chonchúir Dhoinn.
