Dub dá Leithe

Dub dá Leithe, who died in 1064, was abbot, that is successor of Saint Patrick, at Armagh. He was the son of Maelmuire and of the Clann Sinaig, and had been lector (fer léigind) at Armagh. In 1049, at the death of Amalgaid, he became abbot, the third of that name; it is uncertain whether he had been ordained. In 1050 he made a visitation of Cinel Eoghain and brought away a tribute of three hundred cows, and in 1055 he made war on the abbot of Clonard. Since he died after 1054, he is not a saint of the undivided Church, and the sources show no veneration of him.
