Life
Saint Caencomhrac of Inis Endaimh is an Irish saint of the undivided Church, remembered in the old martyrologies of Ireland as a bishop.
The Donegal text says he had first been bishop at Cluain-mic-Nois, where the neighbours honoured him as a prophet. He left because of this veneration and went in search of solitude at Inis Endaimh, in Loch Ribh. His people were the Muintir Degha.
The Martyrology of Donegal, compiled in 1630 from older sources, commemorates him on 23 July. The date is that of the old Irish calendar, that is, in the old style.
No further details of his life survive in the sources consulted.
Commemorated the same day July 23
