 Saint Marcouf - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The traditional power ascribed to French and English kings to cure scrofula (the king's Evil) by the laying on of hands derives from the efficacy of the relics of Marcouf, according to the chronicle of Joan of Arc Chronique de la Pucelle [1].
His relics were transferred to the abbey of Corbény in Champagne, where they played a part in the coronation ceremonies of kings of France, crowned at Reims, and the tradition of laying on of hands.
The accounts of his life are merged with that of St. Helier, whom he sent to convert the inhabitants of Jersey to Christianity.

 Saint Helier - Saint Hélyi - Saint Hélier
The altar incorporates a bas-relief showing the death of Marcouf - with Saint Lo presiding over the scene - and also on display are two other reliefs from the old altar which was destroyed as a result of the bombardments of 1944, both of which depicting scenes from the life of Marcouf.
The pertinent point to note with regard to the story of Helier and Marcouf with regard to this event is that Kings of England and France claimed the power to Touch for the King's Evil (curing scrofula through the laying on of the Royal hands) through Saint Marcouf.
Reims being the traditional location for the coronation of French kings, the post-coronation pilgrimage to the miracle-working shrine of St. Marcouf seems to have endowed the kings with the reputation of partaking of the healing powers of the saint.

 Saint Helier - Saint Hélyi - Saint Hélier
The healing spring of Saint Méen to be found at Ste-Mère-Eglise in mainland Normandy owes its legendary origin to the saint striking the ground and causing water to flow.
At the bottom of the lane is a pump, a lavoir, and a statue of the saint perched above the healing spring itself.
The Blessed Virgin is the patron saint of this town; but Saint-Méen is considered as its second patron saint.

Unlike St Marcouf, where the battery commander decided to leave the telephone cables running along the ground so as to be able to repair them quickly - a method which proved particularly effective on D-Day - this battery took no alter-native measures.
As a result, Admiral Hennecke was responsible, not only for his system of naval defence, but also for naval minefields, and for long-range radar stations and navy batteries like those at St Marcouf and Longues-sur-Mer.
The 1 70 shells fired the day before were quickly forgotten by the disillusioned Wehrmacht troops who perhaps saw captivity as the least unpleasant way of seeing out the war.
