Abraham (Bishop of St David's)

St David's Cathedral and Bishop's Palace

Abraham (died 1080) was bishop of St. David's Cathedral from 1078, when he succeeded Sulien, until his murder in 1080, during a Viking invasion, when he was in turn succeeded by Sulien. His two sons, Hedd and Isaac, are commemorated on a c. early-twelfth-century stone cross discovered in St David's Cathedral in 1891.[1]
