Menott
Irish saint
Menott may have been the name of an early Christian evangelist among the Soghain people of Connaught.
He is now represented in the placename Kilmenott, Ballymacward, of which the original form would be Cell Menott ('the church of Menott'). His background is unknown, though a number of the early missionaries in the area were of the Soghain.
Nothing else is known of Menott, but his foundation of the church - of which there are no apparent remains - would have been in the lifetime or succeeding generation of Kerrill, who was appointed first Bishop of the Soghain by Saint Patrick.
