Life

Saint Saeran was the son of Geraint Saer ("the Wright") of Ireland, a bishop and confessor. The church of Llanynys in the Vale of Clwyd is dedicated to him. He is said to have been buried there, but Baring-⁠Gould holds that without doubt the church is dedicated to him alone and not together with Mor ab Ceneu. His feast is kept on 13 January.
