Saint Remigius
Remigius ( or ; – 13 January 533) was the Bishop of Reims and "Apostle of the Franks". On 25 December 496, he baptised Clovis I, King of the Franks. The baptism, leading to about 3000 additional converts, was an important event in the Christianization of the Franks. Because of Clovis's efforts, a large number of churches were established in the formerly pagan lands of the Frankish empire, establishing a Nicene Christianity for the first time in Germanic lands, most of whom had been converted to Arian Christianity. Life Remigius was born, traditionally, at Cerny-en-Laonnois, near Laon, Picardy, into the highest levels of Gallo-Roman society. He is said to have been son of Emilius, count of Laon (who is not otherwise attested) and of Saint Celine, and brother of the Bishop of Soissons, which Clovis conquered in 487. He studied at Reims and soon became so noted for his learning and sanctity, and his high status, that he was elected Bishop of Reims at age 21, though still a l ...

Remigius Of Rouen
Remigius (or Remi) (died 772) was the illegitimate son of Charles Martel and an unknown mistress. He was also the third archbishop of Rouen from 755 to 772. Life Remigius was educated at court, but, along with his brothers, (Bernhard, son of Charles Martel, Bernard and Hieronymus, son of Charles Martel, Hieronymus) was denied any share of his father's patrimony which was apportioned among Charles' legitimate sons. In 737, he was sent with his half brother Pepin the Short to strengthen Charles' hold on Burgundy. In 755, Remigius became Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Rouen, Archbishop of Rouen. In 760, he accompanied Pepin to Italy, with his two brothers to mediate between Pope Paul I and Desiderius. Upon his return, he brought with him an instructor from The Schola Cantorum of Rome to teach his clergy Roman chants. Remigius died in 772; in 1090, his relics were translated to the Saint-Ouen Abbey, Rouen, Abbaye Saint-Ouen de Rouen. During the turmoil of the Reformation in 1562 his r ...

Remigius Of Lyon
Remigius (died October 28, 875) was archbishop of Lyon. He worked closely with his predecessor, Archbishop Amulo of Lyons, before his elevation to the episcopate on March 31, 852. He played a prominent part in French ecclesiastical history. He was Archicapellanus from 855 to 863, which was a position of influence. He figures among the leading members of several synods, and presided over the Synod of Valence in 855. He participated in the predestination controversy which had been precipitated on the church by Gottschalk, whom, like some other leaders, he defended. This brought him up against the still more powerful Hincmar of Reims, who, in the Synod of Chiersy held in 853, got the endorsement of his four chapters on predestination. But these the synod of Valence refused to ratify and, on the contrary, passed six canons Hefele, ''Conciliengeschichte'', iv. 193 sqq. against Hincmar's position, and they were reaffirmed by the Synod of Langres in 859, which was proof of Remigius' ...

Remigius Of Auxerre
Remigius (Remi) of Auxerre (; c. 841 – 908) was a Benedictine monk during the Carolingian period, a teacher of Latin grammar, and a prolific author of commentaries on classical Greek and Latin texts. He is also accredited with collecting and compiling other early medieval thinkers' commentaries on these works. Biography Remigius, likely born in Burgundy, was a disciple of Lupus of Ferrières and Heiric of Auxerre (d. 876), who was himself a disciple of Johannes Scotus Eriugena. He also borrowed heavily in his commentaries from the Irish teacher Dunchad of Reims, Sedulius Scottus, and Martinus Hiberniensis. "Usually, in accordance with Gresham's law of scholarship, Remigius' commentaries ultimately drove from the field those from which he had so generously borrowed," J. P. Elder has remarked. Putting the same phenomenon under a more positive light, John Marenbon asserts that Remigius's extensive 9th century collection of commentaries on classical texts (both his own an ...

Remigius De Fécamp
Remigius de Fécamp (sometimes Remigius; died 7 May 1092) was an 11th century religious leader. He was a Benedictine monk who was a supporter of William the Conqueror and was appointed Bishop of Dorchester and Bishop of Lincoln. Early life Remigius' date of birth is unknown, although he was probably born sometime during the 1030s, as canon law in the 11th century required a candidate for a bishopric to be at least 30 years of age.Bates ''Bishop Remigius'' p. 2 Likely, he was named for Saint Remigius, and the name was an unusual one for Normandy in that period.

He was a monk at Fécamp Abbey,Greenway ''Fasti Ecclesiae Anglicanae 1066–1300: Volume 3: Lincoln: Bishops'' holding the office of almoner, although the information that he held that office only dates from the Ship List, a listing of ships used by William the Conqueror in the initial invasion of England in 1066.
