- ^ "At Chalcedon, the holy martyrs Manuel, Sabel, and Ismael, whom the king of Persia sent as ambassadors to Julian the Apostate to treat of peace. Having firmly refused to worship idols, as they had been commanded by the emperor, they were put to the sword."[7]
- ^ "In Phrygia, St. Hypatius, confessor."[7]
- ^ A soldier who was taken to the island of Ponza in Italy and martyred by being thrown into the sea with a heavy stone tied round his neck. Christians recovered his body and enshrined it in Gaeta.
- ^ "At Terracina, St. Montanus, a soldier, who received the crown of martyrdom after suffering many torments, in the time of the emperor Adrian and the ex-consul Leontius."[7]
- ^ "AT Rome, during the persecution of Diocletian, the birthday of two hundred and sixty-two holy martyrs, who were put to death for the faith of Christ, and buried on the old Salarian road, at the foot of Cucumer hill."[7]

Like nearly all of his family he became a Saint, and is said to have suffered martyrdom, but on what occasion is not related. He was buried at Hartland, - the church of which place was served originally by secular canons; but in the reign of Henry II was converted into a Monastery of Augustinians."[29]
