Life
Saint Gelchu is commemorated on 16 November (old style) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrology of Tallaght. A bracketed note names Aedh son of Brec, whose Life puts his feast on this day though the calendars do not. The sources say no more; the name is kept by the undivided Church.
