an Irish saint, commemorated Feb. 9, was the sister of St. Enna of Arran, in Galway Bay, of the race of Colla-da-chrioch, and family of Orgielli, in Ulster. Her father was Conall Derg. Her death is entered in the Four Masters at 577, and she is commemorated Feb. 9. Although her monastery is placed at Clonburren, parish of Moore, County Roscommon, there is no little doubt as to her place and time.
