Life

The Martyrology of Donegal names Venerable Eochaidh on 17 April (Old Style), as an abbot; the year of repose given is 634. Donegal ties him to Lis Mor. The same name also appears in the Martyrology of Tallaght. Veneration is that of the medieval Irish calendars, without synodal canonization, and the sources are silent on the rest.
