Uncertain source. We are looking to verify this information as soon as we can.
Life
The Martyrology of Donegal names Holy Hierarch Cairnech on 28 March (Old Style), as a bishop. A note also mentions a Cairnech, son of Saran, of the line of Colla-da-Chrioch. The same name also appears in the Martyrology of Tallaght and Gorman's martyrology. Veneration rests on the Irish tradition, without synodal canonization, and the sources say no more.
