NOTES AND QUERIES. [fl> s. VIL MAY 4, 1907.

To return to the subject of this note. Though it is probable that the West Harnham St. Theobald was one of the two already mentioned, it is possible that he was one of the saints of this name not formally canonized :

3. St. Theobald, Canon of the Collegiate Church of Le Dorat (Haute-Vienne), died on 6 November, 1070. His name was first inserted in the proper of the diocese of Limoges in 1669, when his feast was trans- ferred to 13 September.

4. St. Theobald, Archbishop of Vienne (Isere), was alive at the beginning of the eleventh century, and was great-uncle to St. Theobald of Provins. His festival was kept on 21 May. The village of St. Thibault (Savoie) may possibly own him as its epony- mous hero.

5. St. Theobald of Mondovi was first a cobbler there, and afterwards a porter at Alba, in the district of Monferrato, in Pied- mont. At the close of his life he was em- ployed in sweeping the cathedral and other churches of Alba. He died on 1 June, 1150, on which day his feast was kept.

6. St. Theobald of Marly was Abbot of the Cistercian Abbey of Les Vaux de Cernay (Seine-et-Oise). He died on 8 De- cember, 124,7, but his festival was kept on 8 July. Was St. Thibault (Oise) named after this saint ?

7. Who was the St. Thibaut whose chapel stands on an isolated rock near Rendeux, in the Belgian province of Luxembourg ?

None of these saints, so far as I know, are connected with Wiltshire, or indeed England, in any way.

Theobald, Archbishop of Canterbury 1139- 1161, is known to have been in Wiltshire, but there is no evidence that he was ever reputed to be a saint, and the action of Boniface IX. implies, if not formal canoniza- tion, at least long repute.

I have gone rather elaborately into details because, in a case like this, it is impossible to tell what facts may provide a clue.
