Sigfrith
Sigfrith was abbot of Monkwearmouth Priory in north-east England.
Sigfrith was a deacon at the time he was chosen "by Ceolfrid and the monks". Bede states:
Soon afterwards, both he and the abbey's founder Benedict Biscop both fell fatally ill:
Two months later Sigfrid died, only four months before Benedict's own death.
