Life
On 27 April (Old Style) the Martyrology of Donegal records Saint Ultan. He is called brother of Fursa. The same name also appears in the Martyrology of Tallaght and Gorman's martyrology. Veneration is that of the medieval Irish calendars, without synodal canonization, and the sources are silent on the rest.
