    As a Roman Catholic Scot, who attended twelve years of parochial school, yes I am very aware of St. Margaret's Feast day, and it was noted as a prominent day while I attended Catholic School. St. Margaret, St. Thomas, St. Bridget, St. Maura (younger sister of St. Bridget) St. Fergus, St. Ebba, St. Blane, St. Andrew, St. David, (St. Margaret's younger bother), St. Patrick, and of course the entire month of May (Mary's Month which has the May Day Procession honor Mary), all considered to be the prominent days to honor Saints at the school I attended in the Boston area, St. Mary's. The school and church was Irish/Scottish, in the Boston area, so no doubt, these were considered important feast days of these Saints.

    There were many more who moved Scotland from pagan to Catholic, but too many to post, I posted the most famous of all of them, many were monks, or missionaries, mainly from Ireland, France, and eastern Europe.

    Hope this helps... Cheers.
