Who they were

Calétric or Colétric of Chartres was a 6th-century French bishop and saint. His name is also spelled as Caletricus, Chaletricus or Chalactericus (in Venantius Fortunatus) whilst in French, it appears in the popular forms of Caltry or Calais, probably caused by the confusion with the abbot-saint of Le Maine. His feast day is on 4 September.
