St. Helena lived a very pious and holy life. At a very advanced age she made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. While there, she located many of the sites made holy by Our Lord and recovered relics, which she then sent to Rome and Constantinople. With help from her son, Emperor Constantine the Great, she had a number of churches and shrines constructed to commemorate special sites in the Holy Land. Upon her death she was proclaimed a saint by popular acclaim. There was no formal process at the time for canonization. That did not come until about the 12th century.
St. Helena, the mother of Constantine the Great, was named Flavia Julia Helena Augusta.
There seems to be no Saint Cadog, however there is Saint Cadoc of Llancarvan. Is this who you were referring to?
St. Basil the Great is a pre-congregational saint. He was declared a saint by popular acclaim before there was an official procedure in place for canonization.
