Life
Saint Dagan of Inbher Daoile is an Irish saint of the undivided Church, remembered in the old martyrologies of Ireland as a bishop.
The Donegal text places Inbher Daoile in the east of Leinster and says he was of the race of Labhraidh Lore, son of Ugaine Mor, from whom the Lagenians descend. His mother was Caoiltighern, daughter of Caomhlogha and sister of Caoimhghin.
The Martyrology of Donegal, compiled in 1630 from older sources, commemorates him on 13 September. The Martyrology of Tallaght, from the early ninth century, lists a similar name on the same day. The date is that of the old Irish calendar, that is, in the old style.
Nothing else about him is preserved in the sources consulted.
