Life

Saint Teca of Ruscach is an Irish saint of the undivided Church, remembered in the old martyrologies of Ireland as a virgin.

The Donegal text places Ruscach in Cuailgne.

The Martyrology of Donegal, compiled in 1630 from older sources, commemorates her on 18 October. The date is that of the old Irish calendar, that is, in the old style.

Nothing else about her is preserved in the sources consulted.

Commemorated the same day October 18
