Life

Saint Mochop of Cill Mor is an Irish saint of the undivided Church, remembered in the old martyrologies of Ireland.

The Donegal text says his mother was Eithne, daughter of Conchradh, who was also the mother of many other saints.

The Martyrology of Donegal, compiled in 1630 from older sources, commemorates him on 12 November. The date is that of the old Irish calendar, that is, in the old style.

Nothing else about him is preserved in the sources consulted.
