Marnock was born in Ireland, most likely in the late 6th century.[4] He became a monk on the abbey at Iona where he became a student and disciple of Columba.[5] He later left the monastery to become a missionary bishop on the Scottish mainland.[5]

Marnock died at Annandale in 625.[1]

Veneration and Legacy

A strong cult of veneration developed for Marnock after his death, particularly in the region of the Scottish Borders.[1] Marnock's head was kept as a relic at Kilmarnock, where a tradition emerged where it was washed each Sunday, with the resulting wash water given to the sick to effect miraculous cures.[6]

The strength of the Marnock's cult in the centuries that followed his death is demonstrated in the great number of locations, in Scotland as well Ireland, named in his honour, including:

  • Ardmonoch, a locality within Kilfinan in Argyll and Bute, Scotland.[7]
  • Dalmarnock a district within Glasgow.[4]
  • Inchmarnock, an isle at the northern end of the Sound of Bute, on the west coast of Scotland.[4]
  • Kilmarnock, a town in Ayshire, Scotland.[4]
  • Portmarnock, is a coastal hamlet in Fingal, Ireland.[8]
