Saint George (perhaps ca. 275/281 -- 23 April 303) has a history that is confusing, if we accept that he existed he was a Christian Roman Tribune who was executed/martyred by the Emperor Diocletian for refusing to worship pagan gods. His canonisation/sainthood has been by early church tradition rather than a formal ceremony.
Saint George was never canonized. The official canonization process was not instituted until about 1000 years after he died. He would have been declared a saint by the early Christian community with the approval of a bishop. Today, only the pope can canonize a saint.
