Cinna (Cinne, or Cinnia), Saint

a virgin, is commemorated on February 1. As she persistently refused to marry Corburac, her father, Eochaidh, at last permitted her to be with St. Patrick, who gave her the veil of chastity about A.D. 480, and committed her to the care of Cethuberis, in the monastery of Druimduchan, where she remained till death.
