Life
Saint Dioma appears on 9 March (old style, Julian calendar) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrology of Tallaght. The text mentions a Dioma who was a bishop, son of Senach, of the race of Eochaidh Fionn Fuathairt, to which Brighit also belongs. Little else is known of the life, and the undivided Church keeps the name.
