Life

The Martyrology of Donegal names Troscan of Ard Brecain under 12 June (old style). He is one of four brothers of the race of Cairbre Riada, son of Conaire. Among the calendars consulted, only the Martyrology of Donegal records the name. No further details survive; the veneration is local, without synodal canonization.
