Wexford)St. Aedan the first Bishop of Ferns, Bran Dubh gave him the royal seat of Leinster. Aedh = fire - the supernatural fire that heralded his birth. Mo-Aedan-óg Maodhóg = My young Aedan. He died January 31st 632, and is buried in the precincts of Ferns Abbey. He was the first Bishop of Ferns. His effigy in a recumbent position lies inside the present Cathedral door. The old legend is that those who kiss him will never have the toothache. Crowds still come to see this effigy and and take away parts of it - in fact his nose is quite worn away from the constant kissing.
