Notes

edit
  1. ^ The notation Old Style or (OS) is sometimes used to indicate a date in the Julian Calendar (which is used by churches on the "Old Calendar").
    The notation New Style or (NS), indicates a date in the Revised Julian calendar (which is used by churches on the "New Calendar").
  2. ^ "At Thmuis, in Egypt, in the persecution of Diocletian, the passion of blessed Philaeas, bishop of that city, and of Philoromus, military tribune, who rejected the exhortations of their relations and friends to save themselves, offered themselves to death, and so merited immortal palms from God. With them was crowned with martyrdom a numberless multitude of the faithful of the same place, who followed the example of their pastor."[6]
  3. ^ Name days celebrated today include:
    • Isidore (Ἰσίδωρος);
    • Isidora (Ἰσιδώρα).
  4. ^ The names Aquilinus and Geminus are also listed on January 4 as martyrs of North Africa.
  5. ^ He was left in prison for twelve days without food and then thrown into a well.
  6. ^ "At Rome, St. Eutychius, who endured a glorious martrydom, and was buried in the cemetery of Callistus. Pope St. Damasus wrote an epitaph in verse for his tomb."[6]
  7. ^ Famed for his resistance to the heathen invaders of Britain, in some accounts he is called Bishop of Gloucester, now in England.
  8. ^ "ST. Aldate, or Eldate, was a Briton, who lived at the time of the invasion of the island by the English, and is called Bishop of Gloucester. He is said to have shown much zeal in animating his fellow-countrymen to a defence of their territory, but the little related of him is so blended with the unauthentic history of the period, that it is impossible to gather any certain facts. There are churches dedicated to St. Aldate in Gloucester and in Oxford. (It has not been ascertained that there was a Bishop's See at Gloucester in British times, unless Cluvium is the same place; nor was there in later ages, until the time of the schism, when Henry VIII placed a Bishop there)."[25]
  9. ^ Born in Ireland, he preached at Stirling and along the Forth in Scotland and later lived as a hermit near Dumbarton.
  10. ^ "S. Modan was first monk, and then abbot of Mailros, in Scotland, and preached the faith in Stirling and at Falkirk, when old he retired among the mountains of Dumbarton, and there died. His body was kept till the change of religion, with honour, in the church of Rosneath."[27]
  11. ^ "According to the account preserved in the Diocese of Cambray, ST. Liephard was a Bishop from Great Britain, who on his return from Rome was murdered by pagan robbers in a wood near Cambray. His relics were venerated at Huncourt, but were subsequently translated to St. Quentin, where they were profaned and lost in the siege of A.D. 1557."[25]
  12. ^ Born in Flanders, he became a monk at Turholt in Belgium He worked in Denmark with St Anschar and succeeded him as Bishop of Hamburg-Bremen (865).
