Rossa Mac Eochagáin
  • Latin
  • prose

A list of ecclesiastical settlements (parish churches, chapels, etc.) belonging to the diocese of Kildare. The text survives as part of a composite manuscript, UCD Franciscan A 31, and appears to have been drawn up by Roche MacGeoghegan (al. Roque de la Cruz), bishop of Kildare, who sent it to John Colgan, Louvain, in 1638.
