Are we talking about a real saint here that Geoffrey merged into his mythical royal line or is this Lucius entirely fanciful? I removed the bit about Septimius Severus as it doesn't fit in with the dating, or anything else for that matter. adamsan 17:52, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

It's hard to tell. He is mentioned in Bede and Liber Pontificalis, but these sources are not entirely reliable.
