I believe you have the wrong year of martyrdom for St. Levinus. Ordained by Augustine of Canterbury--means that this was no later than 605 [Aug's death year, and more likely about 600 when Aug did his main work, this would leave too long a time for Levinus' life--who was martyred due to his preaching activities,]

I prefer the year of 633--when his tongue was ripped out for his missionary work.
