Life

Saint Maine appears on 2 September (old style, Julian calendar) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrology of Tallaght. The text mentions a Maine son of Sinell, of the race of Connri, and another Maine, a bishop, of the race of Oilioll, without saying which is meant. Little else is known of the life, and the undivided Church keeps the name.

Commemorated the same day September 2
