Life

Saint Dabheog of Locli Geirg is commemorated on 1 January (old style, Julian calendar) in the Martyrology of Donegal. He is tied to Lough Locli Geirg in Ulster, where an island and a settlement bear his name; the text counts him the same as Mobheoc of Gleann Geirg, a son of a king of Britain. The veneration belongs to the undivided Church; nothing else of the life is recorded.

Commemorated the same day January 1
