Wilfrid II (bishop of York)
Wilfrid II (died on 29 April in either 745 or 746), name also spelled Wilfrith, also known as Wilfrid the Younger, was the last bishop of York, as the see was converted to an archbishopric during the time of his successor.Wilfrid was a monk at Whitby and studied there when Hilda was abbess.[2] He died on 29 April in either 745 or 746,[1] and was buried at Ripon, but it may have been his body that was later translated to Canterbury in the mistaken belief that it was that of the earlier Wilfrid.[4] The younger Wilfrid is considered a saint, with his feast day being 29 April.[3] However, he was never the object of strong cult, and only occasional mentions of him occur in martyrologies.
