Life

On 18 May (Old Style) the Martyrology of Donegal records Holy Hierarch Momhaedhog of Fiodh Duin, as a bishop. Donegal places him in Osraighe, of the line of Labhraidh Lore, son of Ugaine Mor; Tallaght ties him to Fiddown on the Suir. The same name also appears in the Martyrology of Tallaght, Gorman's martyrology and the Félire of Óengus. Veneration rests on the Irish tradition, without synodal canonization, and the sources say no more.

Commemorated the same day May 18
