Life

Saint Cronan son of Sinell is commemorated on 11 November (old style) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrologies of Tallaght and Gorman. The entry adds the year 664; a note recalls a Cronan son of Sinell of the race of Coindri, son of Fergus. Little else is known, and the veneration is that of the undivided Church.
