[[September 8]], [[701]]) was [[Pope]] from 687&ndash;701. He came from an [[Antioch]]ene [[Syria]]n family which had settled at [[Palermo]] in [[Sicily]], and owed his election as [[Pope Conon]]'s successor to skillful intrigues against Paschalis and Theodorus, the other candidates. He was consecrated on [[December 15]], [[687]]. On [[April 10]], [[689]], he baptised King [[Caedwalla of Wessex]] in [[Rome]]. For rejecting certain [[canon law|canon]]s of the [[Council in Trullo|Trullan (Quinisext) council]] of 692, [[Justinian II]] ordered his arrest and transportation to [[Constantinople]], but the militia of [[Ravenna]] and the Pentapolis forced the imperial ''protospatharius'' to abandon the attempt to carry out his orders. Sergius ordained [[Saint Willibrord]] as bishop of the [[Frisia]]ns, and the ''[[Liber Pontificalis]]'' states he also ordained [[Berhtwald]] as [[Archbishop of Canterbury]]. Sergius died in 701. {{Pope| Predecessor=[[Pope Conon|Conon]]| Successor=[[Pope John VI|John VI]]|Dates=687&ndash;701}} {{Popes}} ''From the 9th edition ([[1886]]) of an unnamed encyclopedia.'' {{DEFAULTSORT:Sergius 01}} [[Category:Popes]] [[Category:Syrian popes]] [[Category:Syrian saints]] [[Category:7th century archbishops]] [[Category:8th century archbishops]] [[Category:701 deaths]] [[af:Pous Sergius I]] [[br:Sergius Iañ]] [[bg:Сергий I (папа)]] [[ca:Sergi I]] [[cs:Sergius I.]] [[cy:Pab Sergiws I]] [[de:Sergius I.]] [[es:Sergio I]] [[eo:Serĝo la 1-a]] [[fr:Serge Ier (pape)]] [[gl:Serxio I, papa]] [[ko:교황 세르지오 1세]] [[id:Paus Sergius I]] [[it:Papa Sergio I]] [[jv:Paus Sergius I]] [[sw:Papa Sergio I]] [[la:Sergius I]] [[hu:I.
