Life
On 1 August (old style), the Martyrology of Donegal records Soicheall. The editors suggest he is the bishop Soichell named in the Life of Patrick. Among the calendars consulted, only the Martyrology of Donegal records the name. Little else is known; the veneration is local, without synodal canonization.
