Life

Teloi is the name implied by the church of Llandeloy in Pembrokeshire, written Llandylwyf and Llandeilwyf in two sixteenth-⁠century lists. Browne Willis assigns it to Teilo, but the old forms and the stress of the name tell against that. The scholar M. J. Loth links Landeloi, now Landeleau in Brittany, also to Teilo. Nothing is known of the saint. The veneration is local, without synodal canonization.
