Isfael
Isfael or Ismael ( owl, Ysmail), often anglicized as Ishmael, was a 6th-century medieval Welsh bishop of Rhos and saint. He was allegedly also a Breton prince of Armorica. Although his anglicized name invites association with the Biblical Ishmael, Isfael is actually a native Welsh name (or even epithet) meaning 'under prince'. Isfael was said to have been the son of Budig ap Cybydan, a native of Cornouaille and eventual king of Armorica, and the brother of the martyr Tyfei and Bishop Euddogwy (Oudoceus) of Llandaff. His mother may have been Arianwedd or Anowed, the sister of Saint Teilo. In Rhygyfarch's hagiography, Isfael was said to have been one of the three principal disciples of Dewi Sant;Sharp, Richard & al. (trans.)

Euddogwy
Saint Oudoceus (Latin) or Euddogwy (Welsh) (c.536–c.615 or 625) is generally known as the third Bishop of Llandaff in South Wales. In reality he was probably a 7th-century bishop at Llandeilo Fawr. Wendy Davies puts his episcopal reign between about 650 and 700. Life Information regarding Oudeceus is largely derived from the 12th century ''Book of Llandaff'', composed to enhance the prestige of the see of Llandaff as reorganised by the Normans. His supposed consecration by the Archbishop of Canterbury is the first mention in a written source of the diocese being subservient to Canterbury. Land grants in the ''Book of Llandaff'' show Oudoceus as a contemporary of late 7th-century kings of South Wales. He was said to be the son of Buddig, a king of Brittany, and Anawfedd, the sister of Saint Teilo. His brothers were said to be the saints Ismael, Bishop of Rhos, and Tyfei, the martyr. His associations with Llandaff are very strong and it seems he was an early patron of th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
