Cenelm of Mercia[edit]

Cenelm of Mercia was an historical figure, known only through official documents. His identification as the saint is problematic as the two life stories have several discrepancies, not least the age at death. Merging the articles is therefore not a good idea.

Is there any doubt among historians that the St Kenelm and the Ætheling Cynehelm are the same person? I couldn't find any dissenting views, but I didn't look very hard. Angus McLellan (Talk) 13:34, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think the question is, is St kenelm a hsitoric figure at all? In any case, historic records indicate that Cynehelm lived to a much greater age than the saint so it seems they cannot have been the same person.

Eight or nine churches[edit]

Worcestershire Places of Worship: St Kenelm, Clifton upon Teme states 8 churches dedicated to St. Kenelm. SU0003 : Hinton Parva: parish church of St. Kenelm states that there are 9. So although there are more churches pictured in the article than many similar saints articles, I think that as there are only 8 or 9 it does no harm to have a picture of each displayed. If they are not to be listed down the right hand side of the article then I think they should be displayed in a gallery at the bottom. -- PBS (talk) 11:35, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We have seven so far. I see no harm in having them, but agree it would be inappropriate for St Peter or St Mary, who are the dedicatee for 1000s of them. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:19, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There are eight now - I think is the full list of Anglican Churches, there are also two Roman Catholic Churches called Our Lady and St Kenelm, these are at Stow in the Wold and Halesowen. I have taken the liberty of moving these to a gallery and giving them a section of their own.John Price (talk) 10:59, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
