Life

On 13 June (old style), the Martyrology of Donegal records Cairell of Tir Rois. According to the Life of Colman Ela, Bishop Cairell went with Colman when he set out for Lann Ela. The same day also carries the name in the Martyrology of Gorman. No life or deeds are recorded, and the cult stayed local, without synodal canonization.
