William of York, St (d. 1154), Abp. of
York. William FitzHerbert was elected Abp. of York in 1141, but, as he was accused of
simony by the
Cistercians,
Theobald, Abp. of
Canterbury, refused to consecrate him. Pope Innocent II allowed him to be consecrated in 1143, probably by
Henry of Blois. His difficulties reflect the power struggle of Henry of Blois and St
Bernard. When William went to Rome for the
pallium in 1147,
Eugenius III (a Cistercian) suspended him, and after his relatives had attacked
Fountains Abbey, where the rival candidate was abbot, William was deposed. Pope Anastasius IV restored him in 1153 and gave him the pallium. He entered York in 1154, but died within a month, possibly by poison. He was regarded as a martyr. Feast day, 8 Jun.; of his translation, 8 Jan., until 1478 when it was transferred to the first Sunday after the
Epiphany.
