Life
Saint Wynthryth of March was an Anglo-Saxon saint of the early Middle Ages, known from the Secgan Hagiography and the Confraternity Book of St Gallen. Very little is known of her life. She is linked with the town of March in Cambridgeshire and may have been a relative of King Ethelstan.
She is a saint of the undivided Church, honoured locally, without synodal canonization.
