Life
Venerable Eosterwine was a Northumbrian noble who entered the monastery of Wearmouth with his relative Saint Benedict Biscop and succeeded him as abbot. He was celebrated for his gentleness. Wikipedia calls him the second abbot of Wearmouth and gives the years 650 to 686; Orthodox England gives his repose as 688. He is venerated as a saint of the undivided Church and is commemorated on 7 March (new calendar).
