Notes
- The notation Old Style or (OS) is sometimes used to indicate a date in the Julian Calendar (which is used by churches on the "Old Calendar").
The notation New Style or (NS), indicates a date in the Revised Julian calendar (which is used by churches on the "New Calendar"). - There are three lives of "Venerable Ammons" who excelled in holiness. One was a student of Anthony the Great. The other was a student of Abba Pambo, who cut off the monks' ear, so that he would not become a bishop. And the third built cells to house new monks who attended the hermitage. Which of the three is the saint celebrated on 10 January is unknown. We only know that all three lived in the desert and spent their lives as Venerable monks.
- Stepdaughter of Anna, King of East Anglia. She became a nun at Faremoutiers-en-Brie in France under St Fara, whom she succeeded as abbess. She was the half-sister of Sts Etheldred (Audrey) and Ethelburgh.
- "Being called to the religious state, ST. SETHRYDA retired, with her half-sister, St. Ethelburga, and her niece, St. Ercongota, to the Abbey of Faremontiers, whilst the foundress, St. Fara, or Burgundofora, was still alive. So great was the esteem, in which the English strangers were held, and so high the reputation of their holy lives, that the two sisters were successively chosen to be Abbesses, and are counted among the Saints of God."[13]
- A Sicilian from Palermo, he called for the holding of the Sixth Oecumenical Council in Constantinople in 680 against Monothelitism.
