Biography

[edit]

It seems that the name was originally Alpin, quickly softened to Albin by Bede and the martyrologies which succeed him. According to them, Albin succeeds Justus in 390 and was a holy bishop.[2] Tradition assigns him the foundation of the St. Stephen's Church, where he was buried. He died shortly before 400AD.[3]
