Life
On 3 December (old style), the Martyrology of Donegal records The Sons of Renn. A Latin note suggests it may be the martyr Cassian, whom the Roman Martyrology places in Mauritania. Among the calendars consulted, only the Martyrology of Donegal records the entry. Little else is known; the veneration is local, without synodal canonization.
