Life
Saint Mochonna of Doire is listed on 13 May (Old Style) in the Martyrology of Donegal. Cáin Adamnáin counts him among the saints whom Adamnán took as guarantors for freeing women from bondage. The same name also appears in the Martyrology of Tallaght and Gorman's martyrology. Nothing else is known of the life, and no synodal canonization stands behind the veneration.
