Felix of Nîmes
Saint Felix of Nantes was a 4th-century catholic Bishop martyr and Saint from Nîmes, France.
Jules Igolin writes that Nîmes became the site of a bishopric by the fourth century and that its first bishop was Saint Felix of Nîmes (St Félix), who was martyred around 407AD.
He was succeeded by Sedatus who had served under him. Sedatus was prélat of Nimes until c.506AD.[1][2][3][4] [5]
