That's question 6 complete, although some have been identified without being 'distinguished'
6, labels related to pairs of saints. St. Catherine of Alexndria died in 310, broken on a wheel, and St. Catherine of Siena, preacher and peacemaker, died in 1380. St. Thomas Becket, Archbishop and Chancellor, died in 1170 on the orders of Henry II, while St. Thomas More, Chancellor, died in 1535 on the orders of Henry VIII. St. Augustine of Canterbury, first Archbishop of Canterbury, died in 604, but St. Augustine of Hippo, who died in 430, prayed for chastity 'but not just yet'. St. Teresa of Avila died in 1582 after founding many nunneries, and St. Thérèse of Lisieux died young in 1897, and is credited with many miracles. St. James the Just, the brother (or perhaps the cousin) of Jesus, was the first Bishop of Jerusalem and died in 62, while St. James the Great, who died in 43, was the brother of John (and son of Zebedee) and one of 'the twelve'.
That means complete answers are held for 1, 4, 6, 8, 9 10 and 17.
Other questions with partial answers at least point the way to the full answer.
Q 13 is indeed about bridges, and something that happened to them in May '98
