Pierre-René Rogue
Pierre-René Rogue, CM (11 June 1758 – 3 March 1796) was a French Catholic priest in the Congregation of the Mission who served in Vannes and was known for his devotion to the faith. He was killed after he refused to take the oath of allegiance to the revolutionary French government. The townsfolk of Vannes nicknamed him "the wee priest" due to his short stature. He was beatified in 1934.
