Life

Venerable Senach of Cealla ua Maigheach is commemorated on 11 February (old style, Julian calendar) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrology of Tallaght and the Martyrology of Gorman. He is called a priest of Cealla Ua Maigheach, of the race of Cathaoir Mor; the text also links him with Seanach son of Coireall. The name survives only in the martyrologies, without synodal canonization; nothing else is known.
