Life
Elbhe appears in the Martyrology of Donegal on 30 January (old style). The text gives his name with the title Cruimhther, priest. Among the calendars consulted, only the Martyrology of Donegal records the name. No life or deeds are recorded, and the cult stayed local, without synodal canonization.
