Maximus of Évreux
Saint Maximus of Évreux (died ca. 384), called Saint Mauxe locally, is venerated as a saint by the Catholic Church. His legend states that he was the second bishop of Évreux, and that he died a martyr at Acquigny with his brother, who was his deacon. His brother is called Venerandus (Vénérand) or Victorinus.〔(''Catholic Encyclopedia'' (1913), "Evreux" ) Retrieved 2012-03-04.〕〔(St. Maximus & Victorinus - Catholic Online )〕
==Legend==
Their legend states that they were natives of Brescia. Maximus was a bishop and Victorinus was a deacon. They attempted to make converts to Christianity amongst the ranks of the barbarian armies, but failed. The brothers were sent by Pope Damasus I to preach in Gaul instead, to continue the work of Saint Taurinus (Taurin) in the region. Taurinus is considered the first bishop of Évreux.
They traveled to Gaul with two priests, Mark and Etherius, passing through Auxerre, Sens, and Paris until they reached Évreux, where Maximus became bishop (the years of his episcopate are sometimes given as 411-440, which conflict with the traditional date of his martyrdom).
At Acquigny they were captured by either pagans or Arians and were beheaded. Mark and Etherius escaped. They returned to bury the two brothers. Etherius later became bishop of Évreux.〔(Saint of the Day, May 25 ) at ''SaintPatrickDC.org''. Retrieved 2012-03-04.〕
