Family Religious Service

I found some interesting information. Above is a list of family members who have served as priests, nuns, bishops, etc

I have compiled other research and found out that Saint Dode of Reims (509-530 AD) was my 48th great-grandmother. She was the daughter of King Chloderic of the Ripuarian Franks. Her feast day is April 24th.

I am a direct descendant of Saint Warinus (620 - 677 AD), the son of Saint Sigrada. Saint Warinus was the Martyr of the Franks. He opposed the Ebroin and the decision to expand the power of Neustria, and was killed in Arras in 677 AD. His feast day is August 25th. Saint Warinus was my 44th great-grandfather.
