Life
Firmatus and Flaviana of Auxerre were brother and sister, the deacon Firmatus and the virgin Flaviana, honored at Auxerre in France and remembered together on 5 October.
The Roman Martyrology says only that at Auxerre was the departure from this life of the saintly deacon Firmatus and the virgin Flaviana, his sister. We have no data on the time or circumstances of their lives.
They are saints of the undivided Church, honored in the West; no Orthodox synodal canonization is known. The information is very scant.
