Nefingus

Nefingus (died 12 September 973), in French Néfingue, was the

bishop of Angers from 966 until his death. His predecessor, Aimo, died on 19 October 966.^[1]

Nefingus was a noted benefactor of the

Annales de Vendôme, this succession plan was worked out in advance while Nefingus was still living.^[2] One effect of this plan was that the see did not fall vacant and the count was unable to collect the diocesan revenues, as he otherwise would have during a vacancy.^[3]
