Fachtna of Kiltoom (Gaelic = Cill Toma) in the barony of Fore, County Westmeath was an Irish Christian saint who lived about 460.
His father was Dubhthach moccu Lughair, the Chief Ollam of Ireland.
[1] Fachtna's brothers were all saints and founders of churches, mainly in Leinster.
The Martyrology of Donegal gives Fachtna's feast-day as 14 November as follows- “The three sons of Dubhthach, i.e., Fachtna of Cill-Toma, Gabhran and Euhel, the other two.” The Martyrology of Gorman (Félire Uí Gormáin), for the same day gives- “Dear are the pure-formed, three godly sons of Dubthach”.
