Life

Curcach of Cill Curcaighe appears in the Martyrology of Donegal on 21 July (old style). The text calls her a virgin. Among the calendars consulted, only the Martyrology of Donegal records the name. Nothing else is known; the veneration is local and early Irish, without synodal canonization.

Commemorated the same day July 21
