Life

The entry for 11 July (old style) in the Martyrology of Donegal names Gaibhthene. The text calls her a virgin. The same day also carries the name in the Martyrology of Tallaght and the Martyrology of Gorman. Little else is known; the veneration is local and early Irish, without synodal canonization.
