Goneri

Saint Goneri (Gonéri, Gonnery or Konrix) was a hermit of the sixth century, an exile from Britain to Brittany, where he lived in solitude near Tréguier. The Breton tradition, after Brother Albert le Grand, says he was Irish of distinguished birth and landed near Vannes, then set up his oratory at Rohan, in the forest of Brocéliande.

In France he is not officially canonized, but was regarded as a saint by the faithful before the canonical procedure existed. He is invoked against fevers and anxiety, and by sailors. His present votive feast is Easter Monday, and the great pardon is around 26 to 28 July. He is commemorated on 18 July (in the diocese of Saint-⁠Brieuc on 17 July, and by the Orthodox, according to the French source, on 4 August) as a saint of the undivided Church, by the New Calendar.
