That's really nice to have a very complete list [though I don't agree with a few on there]
Very handy ! Thank you, H, that's nice of you to draw that up for Lemon Schist and everyone else visiting the site and the thread.

So, St Agafangel of Yaroslavl and St Andronik of Perm are NOT included in the Catacomb list ? Why is that ?

Lemon Schist, you will enjoy reading about Eldress Myrtidiotissa.
She specifically advised women on behalf of Our Lady to dress modestly, calling attention to what a grievous offense this is in the modern era.

[Politician Catherine Whiteford, are you listening ?!!]

It's not meant to be an exhaustive list. Of course, there are hundreds, thousands of Catacomb Saints and Martyrs.

Yes, but it's a great start, something from which newcomers especially can use as a jumping off point.

We forget how confusing all these names, jurisdictions, etc can BE to someone not used to all this bacground.

Thank you

Has anyone produced a Lives of TO Saints? I was trying to find out more about Blessed Tarso but the only non-Amazon(I refuse to get an account) sources were in Greece and expensive for a little paperback, especially after shipping.
