Kedron of Alexandria, also called Kedronos, was the 4th Patriarch of Alexandria. When the priest and Bishops who served in the country learned that the Bishop Avilius, Patriarch of Alexandria had died, they gathered in Alexandria to consult with the Christian people there, and elected Kedronos as successor. It was said that he was among those who had been baptized by Saint Mark, and he was enthroned Patriarch in Babab (October), in 96 AD, during the reign of the Emperor Nerva. Kedron was arrested and martyred in the persecution under the Emperor Trajan. Read more on Wikipedia
