    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 Cappadocia, St. Hyacinthus, chamberlain of the emperor Trajan. Accused of being a Christian, he was scourged and thrown into prison, where, consumed with hunger, he breathed his last."[8]
  3. Name days celebrated today include:
    • Hyacinth; Yakinthos; Jacinthus (Ὑάκινθος);
    • Hyacinthe (Ὑακίνθη).
  4. "At Laodicea, in Syria, St. Anatolius, a bishop, whose writings were admired not only by religious men, but even by philosophers."[8]
  5. "The same day, the holy martyrs Mark and Mucian, who were put to the sword for Christ. As a small boy cried out to them not to sacrifice to idols, he was whipped, but confessing Christ all the more vigorously, he was killed with a man named Paul, who had also exhorted the martyrs."[8]
  6. His election was due to the miraculous appearance of a dove hovering over his head.
  7. "At Ravenna, St. Dathus, bishop and confessor."[8]
  8. "At Chiusi, in Tuscany, in the reign of the emperor Trajan, the holy martyrs Irenaeus, deacon, and Mustiola, a matron, who were subjected to various atrocious tortures and merited the crown of martyrdom."[8]
  9. Born in Dalmatia, he helped translate the Vulgate. Later he settled in Aquileia in Italy and became Bishop of Altinum (Altino), a small town since destroyed, near Venice. He was a brave opponent of Arianism.
  10. "At Altino, St. Heliodorus, a bishop distinguished for holiness and learning."[8]
  11. By tradition a nephew of St Patrick and a monk in Ireland, Wales and Brittany. Eventually he went to the Isle of Man as a bishop. His memory is still kept here in several place-names in the forms 'Germain' and 'Jarman'.
  12. "GUNTHIERN was one of the sovereign princes of Wales, but quitted his earthly estate to seek perfection in a life of solitude. He first fixed his residence in the Isle of Croix, on the coast of Brittany, and there remained for a length of time, until the fame of his virtues and miracles reached the ears of the king of the country. This prince induced the Saint to transfer his abode to the mainland, and gave him a plot of ground for his hermitage. His chief residence in the latter years of his life seems to have been at Quimperlé, where an abbey was built in the tenth century. There St. Gunthiern is supposed to have passed to his everlasting crown; but his body, probably from fear of the Norman pirates, was removed to his island of Croix, and once more - in the middle of the eleventh century - solemnly translated to Quimperlé. His solemn commemoration, which fell on the day of SS. Peter and Paul, was transferred to the 3rd July."[32]
  13. Born in Sicily, he became Pope of Rome in 681, during the Byzantine Papacy. During his papacy, the former Pope Honorius I was condemned for not denouncing Monothelitism.
