Life

Saint Aedh appears on 6 October (old style, Julian calendar) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrology of Tallaght, the Felire of Oengus and the Martyrology of Gorman. The text suggests this may be Bishop Mac Carthainn of Clochar, Patrick's "champion", of the race of Eochaidh son of Muireadh. The veneration belongs to the undivided Church; nothing else of the life is recorded.
