Life

Saint Colman of Cluain Uamha is commemorated on 24 November (old style) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrologies of Tallaght, Oengus and Gorman. He is called a son of Lenin, of Cluain Uamha in Ui Liathain, Munster, of the race of Oilioll Olum; a note takes him for the Colman Uamhach named among the authors of Lives of Patrick. The sources say no more; the name is kept by the undivided Church.
