Wulfram of Sens

St. Wulfram statue at his church in [[Grantham]], [[Lincolnshire]]. Wulfram of Sens or Wulfram of Fontenelle (also Vuilfran, Wulfrann, Wolfran; ; or ''Vulphran''; c. 640 – 20 March 703) was the Archbishop of Sens. His life was recorded eleven years after he died by the monk Jonas of Fontenelle. However, there seems to be little consensus about the precise dates of most events whether during his life or ''post mortem''.

Wulfram is depicted in art as baptising a young king or the son of King Radbod. Sometimes the young king is near him and sometimes Wulfram is shown arriving by ship with monks to baptise the king. There are two churches dedicated to him in England, at Grantham, Lincolnshire, and Ovingdean, Sussex, and two in France, one at Abbeville, in the ''département'' of Somme, the other in Butot, in the département of the Seine Maritime. As a patron saint, he protects against the dangers of the sea. Provided by Wikipedia
