Along with being known for his religiousness, was he also known as a royal of some sort (king, prince, duke, etc...)?

The doubt may be about speaking English.

Which would also have ruled out Thomas Becket. My point was it couldn't be him on *both* counts.

I don't think anyone is arguing that point. But were they probably an English Speaker born in the northern hemisphere or an English speaker probably born in the northern hemisphere is the clarification we may need

Technically, this is unknown, but likely yes.
I will clarify that this is really very likely. Personally, I would say almost a certainty, it's just that the source I found hedged, and so I am hedging too.

So, we are looking for an English speaker born between 1051 and 1299, known for his religiousness but not sainted and not of royal blood.
