    Patron Saint of this parish is St Brendan is the patron saint now. Killoran church was built by St Oran and Killoran parish was called after him. There is a well still in Killoran parish called Tober Oran. I don't know of any stories or any miracles concerning him. There is no Holiday kept in honour of St Oran.
