D. 550 or 552. He was accompanied to the island by his nephew, the Bishop Moennu, or Moinenn, whom he after- wards appointed to preside over Clonfert. With their own hands they carried the stones and built their cells and little oratory. Here, too, St. Fursey, who was a near relation of St. Brendan, received his early training, as we shall see further on. When Brendan had established himself on Inchiquin, his sister, St. Briga, came from Kerry, for she loved her brother dearly, and was anxious ...to be near him for spiritual advice and instruction. Then Brendan built for his sister the convent of Annaghdown, on the shore of the lake a few miles to the south, and there she governed under Brendan's guidance a convent of holy nuns. The place afterwards became very celebrated and was greatly enlarged. A parish church, and afterwards a cathedral were established there, which flour- ished for many centuries as the chief church of O'Flaherty's territory, until it was finally appropriated somewhat harshly by the Archbishops of Tuam.
