Life
Venerable Rhwydrys (Rhwydrus) was, according to Bonedd y Saint, the son of Rhwydrim (Rodrem), king of Connaught in Ireland, and lived in the sixth century. He is believed to have built a chapel at Llanrhwydrys on Anglesey around the year 570, and the twelfth-century church there bears his name. His feast was kept on All Saints' Day or on the first Sunday in November; tradition gives it as 1 November.
