Micheál Ó Conghaile (fl. 1878–1892) was an Irish scribe.

Ó Conghaile transcribed poetry, including Dán na Gaoithe Móire (Night of the Big Wind) and Dán an Cholera (poem of cholera). He also transmitted poetry by Antoine Ó Raifteiri and old folk poems. He died "on the roadside" (ar thaoibh an bhóthair) near the national school of Ballinderreen in the parish of Cummer, County Galway.^{[citation needed]}

One scholar who examined his manuscripts, Tomás de Róiste, despaired of understanding Ó Conghaile's difficult script, saying that his "handwriting is something terrible to make out ... I had it 4 years and found it a Chinese puzzle!".^{[citation needed]}
