Talk:Saint Ina

Other Saint Inas
King Ine of Wessex is listed as a saint in several sources, including. In addition, the History of Christianity in Ukraine article mentions Saint Ina as a Scythian disciple and a follower of St Andrew the apostle. These are clearly different people, and different from the Welsh Saint Ina. Verbcatcher (talk) 15:02, 21 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Baring-Gould says In the Demetian Calandar (S) February I is entered as the festival for Ina Farchog, or the Knight, and Brown Willis gives the same day for the parish feast at Llanina. Female knights are unlikely in fifth-century Wales so this could be a different Saint Ina, or a confusion with King Ine. Verbcatcher (talk) 15:32, 21 June 2015 (UTC)

Name of this article
I created this article as "Ina (Welsh saint)". User:Srnec has moved the article to Saint Ina, presumably because it is a simpler name and disambiguation is not needed. However there were several people known as Saint Ina: As far I know none of these saints appear in official church lists or calendars. These are all potential subjects for articles. The king of Wessex is probably the most notable so might merit the article title Saint Ina. Should we leave this article as "Saint Ina", or should "Saint Ina" be a redirect to Ine of Wessex?

 * 1) The fifth century daughter of Ceredig, the subject of this article
 * 2) The seventh and eighth century King of Wessex. I was planning to create this article before I found Ine of Wessex.
 * 3) The Scythian follower of St Andrew (first century) mentioned in History of Christianity in Ukraine
 * 4) Possibly Ina Farchog (the knight) mentioned by Baring-Gould
