Life

Aenna ua Laighsigh appears in the Martyrology of Donegal on 20 January (old style). He is called successor of Ciaran of Cluain-⁠mic-⁠Nois and is traced to the race of Laeighseach Leann-⁠mhor, son of Conall Cearnach. Among the calendars consulted, only the Martyrology of Donegal records the name. Little else is known, and no synodal canonization is recorded.
