Gerald of Mayo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gerald of Mayo (died 13 March 731) is a saint of the Catholic Church. A Northumbrian monk, Saint Gerald founded a monastery in County Mayo, Ireland and became its first abbot bishop.[1] His brother Balin is also a saint.[2]
He should not be mistaken for Gerald Mayo, the man who tried to sue Satan in a 1971 court case.
