    St. Patrick at Aill Finn (Elphin)

    <p>On his missionary tour through Connaught (having crossed the Shannon at Drum-boilan, near Battlebridge, in the parish of Ardcarne) in 434 or 435, St. Patrick came to the territory of Corcoghlan, in which was situated the place now called Elphin. The chief of that territory, a noble Druid named Ono, of the royal Connacian race of Hy-Briuin, gave land to St. Patrick to found a church and monastery.</p>
