Short Cuts
St. Rumon, also known as Ruan, Ronan, and Ruadan, was probably a brother of Bishop St. Tudwal
of Trequier, but nothing else is known of him beyond that he was
probably an Irish missionary and many churches in Devon and Cornwall in
England were named after him. Some authorities believed he is the same
as the St. Ronan (June 1) venerated in Brittany and believed consecrated bishop by St. Patrick, but others believe that he and St. Kea were British monks who founded a monastery at Street Somerset. Feast day is August 30.
