of Ros-bennachair (County Clare), an Irish saint, is commemorated June 29. In the Life of St. Ciaran, of Saighir, there is an account of the many services St. Ciaran did to St. Cocha, and of their lasting friendship. She was St. Ciaran's nurse, and through him her monastery at Rosbanagher was founded in the 6th century (Todd and Reeves, Mart. Doneg. pages 183, 379; Lanigan, Ecol. Hist. of Ireland, 1:405).
