Volusianus of Tours
Saint Volusianus (French: Saint Volusien) was the seventh Bishop of Tours, from 491 to 498. He came from a rich and pious senatorial family, and was a close relative of his predecessor Saint Perpetuus, as well as of Ruricius of Limoges. He was deprived of his see by the Visigoths, exiled to Toulouse, and perhaps martyred.[1] His feast day is January 18. He is the patron saint of Foix.

gollark: But more efficient due to having a bunch of common tags/attrs representable with numbers.
