medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

Dear Meg,

The best place to start would be Pádraig Ó Riain's A Dictionary of
Irish Saints (Dublin, Four Courts Press, 2011)

http://www.fourcourtspress.ie/product.php?intProductID=1051

This is the standard work by the leading authority on the subject and
will give you all you need to get started. Unfortunately I am away
from my desk at present and can't access a copy.

With kind regards,

Colmán Ó Clabaigh OSB
