The little that is known about St Cedd comes to us mainly from the writing of St. Bede in his "Eclessiastical History Of The English People".(Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum) Cedd was borne in the Kingdom of Northumbria and brought up on the island of Lindisfarne by St Aidan. He was one of four brothers Ceadda (later saint Ceadda), Cynibill and Caelin.In 653 he was sent as one of four priests by King Oswiu to evangelise the kingdom of Mercia. In Mercia, Peada son of Penda was king and had agreed to become a Christian in return for the hand of Oswiu's daughter Alchflaed in marriage.
