Who is Conan of Cornwall?

Conan was a medieval Bishop of Cornwall.

He was nominated about 926 by King Æthelstan. He was consecrated before 931. He died between 937 and 955.

However, in the view of historian D. P. Kirby, it was almost certainly in 936 not 926 that Æthelstan "established Bishop Conan at St. Germans".
