Saint Clair, originally named William, was born into a noble family in Rochester, England, in 845. To escape a forced marriage, he set out for France with his companion Serinus in 866, where they lived as hermits and spread Christianity throughout Normandy. During his travels, Clair performed miracles, such as healing a wounded servant, and was eventually ordained as a priest in 870. Despite his efforts to lead a life of contemplation and asceticism, his reputation attracted attention, leading to a noblewoman's infatuation, which forced him to flee. Ultimately, he was martyred in 884 when hired assassins, sent by the scorned noblewoman, found and beheaded him and Serinus near the Epte River, where the Treaty of Saint-Clair-sur-Epte was later signed.
