Life
Cú Dínaisc mac Conasaig (c. 720 to 791) was abbot of Armagh from 768 to 772, the twenty-third successor of Saint Patrick. He was of the Uí Eachach, from the Ards peninsula, County Down. He was in contention for the abbacy with Dub dá Leithe I and was forced out or resigned after four years. He died in 791. The sources found show no veneration as a saint.
