SAINT CONRAN

St. Conran

Feast day: February 14

Died 7th century.

     A traditional figure, believed to have served as bishop of the Orkney Islands, Scotland. No details of his life have survived.The legend of an apostle and holy bishop of the Orkney Islands especially of Kirkwall by this name lacks any historical basis. There are no place names or church dedications connected with him there, although there are several to Saint Columba.His legend still connects him with Saints Palladius and Sylvester .
