St. Columba

St. Canice

St. Adamnan (Eunan)

St. Fiacra

Lived at some time in the 7th century. He came from Conwall, near Letterkenny. He went to Paris, where he set up hospices for the sick and poor. He used to gather them up in the streets and take them to his hospices in a rickshaw-like vehicle. Thus, to this day, one French word for taxi is Fiacre.
