'''Saint Alban''' (Died AD 304) lived in the 2nd or 3rd century.  He was a [[pagan]] living in the [[Roman]]-British city of Verulamium and was converted to [[Christianity]] through the witness of a priest (supposedly named Amphibalus) he was sheltering.  When the house was searched, Alban dressed in the priest's clothes and was executed in his place.  He was the first recorded [[British]] [[martyr]].  Verulamium was renamed St. Alban in his honor.
