There is another Saint Restituta celebrated on the 27th of May, and yet a third celebrated on the 21st, especially on the island of Corsica, who, according to the Bollandists could actually be either the Saint Restituta of the 21st or of the 27th. The website Santi Beati attaches the Corsican cult to today’s Saint Restituta and includes yet another Saint Resituta on this day, the mother of Saint Eusebius of Vercelli.
