Life

Saint Seanan of Laithrech Briuin is commemorated on 2 September (old style, Julian calendar) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrology of Tallaght, the Felire of Oengus and the Martyrology of Gorman. The place is in Ui Faelain, and he was of the race of Eochaidh son of Muireadh, of the seed of Heremon. Little else is known of the life, and the undivided Church keeps the name.
