SAINT AEDH MAC BRICC, BISHOP OF KILDARE  Much information we have about this 6th century saint is contained in the Codex Salmanticensis.  It presents Aedh as a peacemaker between Munster and the Ui Neill, and between Mide and Tethbae, befitting his cross-border descent through his mother, Eithne, from the neighbouring Munster people of Muscraige Tire (north-west Co. Tipperary). AN EARLY LATIN LIFE An early Latin Life of Aedh, dating from the period 750 - 850, survives also. Its central concerns are with local violence and with the poverty and insecurity of women, especially nuns.

He died in 589.  ST AID "MECHPRECH" Medieval incantations against headache enumerate bodily organs ...
