Life
The Martyrology of Donegal records Murchu on 12 June (old style). A note mentions a Murchu of the race of Conall Cremhthainne and a Cill Murchon in Corann, Connacht, and leaves open whether this is his feast. The same name also stands on that day in the Martyrology of Gorman. Little else is known, and no synodal canonization is recorded.
