sorry guys, The first time I tried it did not work. I tried to send this link before with the other one on the 3rd. There was another one i tried to send but it linked the first one again. If you go onto Patrin website there is another link for Saint - marie. It does explain about the two ladies being put in the boat and sent off from the middle east. One was Marie - The sister of the Virgin Mary and the other was Saint Salome The mother of saint Janmes (De compostella de espana) and St John.
The feast IS on My Birthday 24th of may - 25th of May. Not bad for someone with Gypsy Heritage!!
