Life
Saint Maelbrighde son of Dornan is commemorated on 22 February (old style, Julian calendar) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrology of Gorman. He is called successor of Patrick and of Columba, a man full of the grace of God and a vessel of the wisdom of his time, son of Dornan, of the race of Conall Gulban; his mother was Saerlaith. The name survives only in the martyrologies, without synodal canonization; nothing else is known.
