A slight inconsistency in the reporting. The saint is actually

St. Edburga of Bicester

Feastday: July 18
7th century

Nun at Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England, the daughter of Penda , the pagan king of Mercia. Her shrine is at Stanton Harcourt, Oxfordshire, but her relics, originally at Bicester, were taken to Flanders, Belgium.

Just to help you all with the pronounciation, Bicester is pronounced BISTER not BY-CEST-ER

Wouldn’t it be more fruitful to find living saints?
