Life
The Martyrology of Donegal names Venerable Sgire of Cill Sgire on 24 March (Old Style), as a virgin. A gloss in Gorman calls her a virgin of Cill Scire in Meath; Donegal gives her descent from Fergus, son of Eochaidh Muighmhedhoin. The same name also appears in the Martyrology of Tallaght, Gorman's martyrology and the Félire of Óengus. Veneration is that of the medieval Irish calendars, without synodal canonization, and the sources are silent on the rest.
