Life

The Martyrology of Donegal names The Three Sons of Bochra under 28 November (old style). The text names them Laidhgenn, Cainneach and Accobhran, of Achadh Raithin in Ui Mic Caille, in Deisi Mumhan; their mother was Bochra. Among the calendars consulted, only the Martyrology of Donegal records the entry. Little else is known, and no synodal canonization is recorded.
