Life
The Martyrology of Donegal names Saint Saran of Inis Mor on 15 May (Old Style). He is called son of Archur, in Ui MacCaille in Ui Liathain. The same name also appears in the Martyrology of Tallaght, Gorman's martyrology and the Félire of Óengus. Nothing else is known of the life, and no synodal canonization stands behind the veneration.
