Life

Venerable Bogha son of Fianghalach is commemorated on 22 January (old style, Julian calendar) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrology of Gorman. She is named with Colma and Laisri, three sisters and virgins, disciples of Comgall of Beannchair, settled at Leitir Dal Araidhe. The name survives only in the martyrologies, without synodal canonization; nothing else is known.
