112 CORNISH DEDICATIONS. 



Unfortunately we know nothing further of Cynydr save 

 that he founded two churches in Brecknockshire, one of which 

 is Y Clas or Glasebury, where he was buried. 



8. Cadoc certainly was in Cornwall, and he very probably 

 took his cousin Cynydr with him, and Cynydr would not be at 

 all reluctant to visit his kinsmen thick as stars in the firmament, 

 studded on the windy downs of North Cornwall. 



S. Enoder in 8. Minver is not 8. Cyndr. 



The festival of S. Cynydr, in Wales, is on April 27. 



In Brittany his feast is not on the same day or month. 

 He is there called 8. Kinede, and is commemorated on Aug. 1. 

 He has chapels at Plumelin and Plaintel in Cotes du Nord and 

 Morbihan {Kerviler). Nothing seems to be known concerning 

 him in Brittany ; and Le Mene, in his Histoire des paroises de 

 Vannes says nothing about a chapel of 8. Kinede, at Ploumelin. 



It is most probable that he is the same as 8. Cenneur 

 (Cynydr becoming Cenneur). The story told of 8. Cenneur is 

 that he was a native of Wales, and that when the Yellow 

 Plague devastated Britain 547 — 550, he fled with his friend 

 and kinsman, 8. Cadoc, to Armonica. 



This might well be 8. Enodoc who was a cousin of 8. Cadoc ; 

 and there certainly was an exodus of saints and their disciples 

 from Wales and Ireland during the continuance of the plague. 



8. Cenneur is patron of a parish in the diocese of 8. Malo. 

 He is represented as a hermit astride on a stag. 



Besides 8. Enodoc, near Mitchell, there is no other church 

 or chapel dedicated to him in Cornwall. The date of his death 

 would be about 570. 



8. Erg or Erth, Bishop, Confessor. 

 William of Worcester tells us that he learned that Herygh 

 (i.e. Ergh or Ere) was brother to 8. Euny and 8. la. He was of 

 the Irish party that landed in Hayle bay. Among the several 

 Irish Ercs, there can be little doubt as to who this is. He was 

 a disciple of S. 8enan, and as 8enan came to Penwith, doubtless 

 his pupil came with him or followed him.
