Life

Peregrinus, Maceratus and Viventius are three saints of the sixth century, remembered on 4 August in the Western calendar (new style). By tradition they were two Christian brothers, who came from Spain and died in France while seeking to rescue their sister, who had been enslaved.

The source does not say who the third is and gives no other details. They are honoured as saints of the undivided Church, with no synodal canonization shown in the source.
