Life
Saint Heilin appears in a sixteenth-century list of Brychan's children with the note "in Dyffryn Aled", but no church of his stood there. In the parish of Llangefni in Anglesey, however, there was a chapel to a saint Heilin, in ruins by the eighteenth century. No other facts are kept. The veneration is local, without synodal canonization.
