Cronan Balnae

Cronan Balnae

Cronan Balnae, Irish Saint, died 692.

Cronan Balnae (Cronan of Balla) appears to have been a successor of Mo Chua, who founded the monastry of Balla, about the year 500.

However, O Murail appears to identify him with Mo Chua himself.

His obit appears in the Annals of the Four Masters.
