Life
Ferfugil of Clondalkin, also called Fearlughuil or Fearfughuil, is remembered as a bishop or abbot of Clondalkin near Dublin in the eighth century. Very little is known about him.
Colgan mentions him, and the Bollandists enter him on 10 March as Ferfugal, but they say they would like clearer evidence for his veneration than Colgan supplies. No account of his birth and parents has been preserved; it is said only that he was made bishop of Clondalkin, near Dublin. The day follows the Julian calendar of the medieval martyrologies. He is honoured in the Irish calendars, with no synodal canonization shown in the source.
