Life

On 15 May (Old Style) the Martyrology of Donegal records Holy Hierarch Dachonna of Condeire, as a bishop; the year of repose given is 725. He was of the line of Eoghan, son of Niall. No other calendar consulted has an entry for this name. Veneration rests on the Irish tradition, without synodal canonization, and the sources say no more.
