In Croatia the patron saint of Vukovar is Saint Bonus/Sveti Bono. There's nothing in any English Catholic encyclopedia but Croatian wikipedia lists the following facts:
* Martyred under Decian (or was it Valens?) in the third century
* There's an inscription of his name on a street in Rome.
* His body was donated to the people in Vinkovski by Benedict XIV
How common is it for saints of one region to be "left out" in the English hagiographies?
