Notater:

Eochaid succeeded to a kingship in turmoil in 697. Eochaid became king of Dal Riata in 726, when his predecessor (Cenel Loairn) was 'ousted from the kingship'. He survived a Cenel Loairn attack on his authority in 727, led by Selbach son of Ferchar Fota, and managed to hold his position without challenge until his death in 733. Following Eochaid's death, it appears that the kingship was shared between his brother Alpin, and Muiredach, the Cenel Loairn claimant, until Dal Riata was subjugated by Oengus, king of the Picts, in 736.

Eochaid's wife, Spondana was a daughter of Entfidich, Irish Chieftan, who married a daughter of Bili map Nechtan, King of Strathclyde (shown elsewhere in this genealogy).

Aed Find "the Fair" was probably re-established independence from Pictish overlordship, and the kingship of Dal Riata, when the Picts were defeated by the Strathclyde British in 750. He was on the offensive against the Picts by 768, when he raided their territory. Nothing else about his reign is recorded. He was succeeded by his brother Fergus upon his death in 778.
