From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pádhraic Ó Comáin (fl. 1878) was an Irish scribe.

Ó Comáin was from Pairce O Cuaman, Creig Mhóir, Leacach (Lackagh, County Galway). His scribal work consists of folk songs, poetry, Fianna stories, and poems by Antoine Ó Raifteiri and the brothers Marcus and Peatsaí Ó Callanáin. Some of his work was in turn written in a song-book of Micheál Ó Síoda in 1909.

His son was Mícheál Ó Comáin of Turloughmore.
