Life
The Martyrology of Donegal names Saint Cuanghas on 13 March (Old Style). The epithet Macdall means "blind boy", and Tallaght calls him Cuanghus, son of Aillil. The same name also appears in the Martyrology of Tallaght, Gorman's martyrology and the Félire of Óengus. No other secure details survive, and veneration remains local, without synodal canonization.
