Saint Flavius Clemens, Martyr (Feast Day is June 22)

(From the 1st Century.) He was a brother of the Emperor Vespasian and uncle of Titus and Domitian, which niece (Julia) by reason of Flavia Domitilla the Elder he married. In the year 95 he held the consular dignity. Domitian had him arrested and condemned him to be beheaded on the charge and crime of being a follower of Christianity (in A.D. 95).
