Nuadu of Loch Uama : ウィキペディア英語版 | Nuadu of Loch Uama
Saint Nuadu (Also called Aidan, Aidano, Aideno, Noadain, Noda, Nodain, Nodtat, Nuad, Nuada, Nuadan, Nuadat, Nuadato, Nuadha, Nuadhat, Nuado, Wogani) b. c.760 - d.19 February 812, was the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Armagh diocese, Ireland and Primate of All Ireland from 809 to 19 February 812. ==Genealogy and Birth==
Nuadu’s genealogy does not seem to have survived. Archbishop Ware incorrectly states he was the son of Segene but this is a misreading of John Colgan (Acta Sanctorum Hiberniae, 19 February, p. 373), who was referring to a Nuadhat, son of Seigen who was killed in Offaly in 843. Nuadu was from the parish of Estersnow, Barony of Boyle, County Roscommon. Two adjoining townlands in the parish are associated with him. Firstly the townland of Estersnow which is a corruption of the Gaelic, ''Ath-Disert-Nuadhain'', meaning ''The Ford of Nuadu’s Hermitage'', where he lived as an anchorite. John O’Donovan in a note under the year 1330 in the Annals of the Four Masters states- ‘''His holy well, called Tobar Nuadhain, is still in existence, but at present very seldom resorted to by pilgrims. There is a tradition in the country there was a town here, but no trace of it now remains. The following extract from an Inquisition taken in the reign of Elizabeth seems to corroborate this tradition:"Quod est quoddam forum sive mercatum in die Sabbatis qualibet septimana quondo non est guerra in patria, juxta templum Sancti Wogani vulgarite Temple-Issetnowne in baronia de Moy Lurg." In another part of this Inquisition it is anglicised Issertnowne.''’ It is also called Tirs Nuadhain locally. O’Donovan also writes in his O.S. Letters of 1835- "''The original site of the church is still occupied by the Protestant one, and there is a holy well not far from it called Tobar Nuadhain, which is said to have been blessed by a monastic old gentleman of the name of Noone (a surname numerous in this country of Moylurg) but at what period no one remembers. This well is fast losing its sanctity and is now but seldom resorted to for cure. When it was in vogue it was visited by great numbers, and when the patient was not to recover from his malady, when he came to drink of its water, the blessed trouts of the well turned their bellies up, and seemed to be sickish and languid, but when he was to recover through the blessed waters of the well, they looked healthy and swam about briskly''". The cave beside the well was where Nuadu lived as an anchorite and is marked as "''Issertnowe''" on the Ordnance Survey maps of the townland. The second townland is Cavetown which is an Anglicisation of the Gaelic Loch Uama, meaning The Lake of the Cave. It is also called Ballynahoovagh. John O’Donovan under the year 1487 in the Annals of the Four Masters states- "''Baile-na-huamha, i.e. the town of the cave. This place is now called Baile na h-Úmhach in Irish, and Cavetown in English. It is situated between the lakes of Clogher and Cavetown.''"
