Historical references
Killaraght
Killaraght in Sligo; Cill-Athrachta (FM), church of Athracht or Attacta, a virgin saint of fifth or sixth centuary: some write that she took the veil from the hands of St. Patrick. Still held in great veneration, so that "Attracta" is now a pretty common name for Sligo women.
