Life
On 24 March (Old Style) the Martyrology of Donegal records Saint Manchan son of Failbhe. He was of the line of Conall Gulban, and a church called Leth Manchain stands in Dealbhna Mec Cochlain. No other calendar consulted has an entry for this name. Veneration rests on the Irish tradition, without synodal canonization, and the sources say no more.
