Saint Comhgall of Both Conais is commemorated on 4 September (old style, Julian calendar) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrology of Tallaght and the Martyrology of Gorman. He is called a son of Eochaidh, of Both Conais in Gleann Daoile in Inis Eoghain, of the race of Eoghan son of Niall. The name survives only in the martyrologies, without synodal canonization; nothing else is known.
