Notes

  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 Caesarea, in Palestine, the birthday of the holy martyrs Timolaus, Denis, Pausides, Romulus, Alexander, another Alexander, Agapius, and another Denis, who merited the crown of life by being beheaded in the persecution of Diocletian, under the governor Urban."[7]
  3. Flavius Latinus succeeded St Viator as the third Bishop of Brescia in Italy (84-115). He suffered imprisonment and torture with other Christians.
  4. "Also, at Rome, in the time of Julian the Apostate, the passion of blessed Pigmenius, a priest, who was killed for the faith of Christ, by being precipitated into the Tiber."[7]
  5. An ascetic who lived as a hermit on an island in Lough Derg in Ireland. Many disciples were attracted to him on account of his holiness. Later he founded a monastery and church on the island of the Seven Churches and worked with St Senan. A fragment of the Psalter of St Caimin, copied in his own hand, still exists.
  6. "ST. HlLDELID succeeded St. Ethelburga in the government of her Abbey at Barking, and held the office many years, to extreme old age. She was wholly devoted to the service of God, most strict in enforcing regular observance, and prudent in the administration of the temporal goods of the house. In consequence of needful alterations in the monastic buildings, St. Hildelid caused the venerated remains of the servants of God, who were buried in the cemetery, to be removed and placed within the Church of our Blessed Lady ; and this translation was honoured by several striking miracles, such as the supernatural light which was seen, and the celestial odour which was often perceived. St. Hildelid was held in veneration by St. Aidhelm, who dedicated to her his book on Virginity, and by St. Boniface, who mentions her with great respect in his letters."[18]
  7. A princess from England who became a nun either at Chelles or at Faremoutiers-en-Brie in France. She was recalled to England by St Erconwald of London to Barking, where she later became abbess, admired for her wisdom and culture.[15]
  8. Highly venerated in Ukraine for his support of the Ukrainian Church.[20]
