Apostolic Vicariate of the Midland District : ウィキペディア英語版 | Apostolic Vicariate of the Midland District The Vicar Apostolic of the Midland District (later of the Central District) was the title given to the Titular Bishop who headed the ecclesiastical (missionary) jurisdiction of the Roman Catholic Church in England which was known as the Apostolic Vicariate of the Midland District from 1688 and 1840, then of the Central District from 1840 to 1850. == Background == Soon after the accession of Anglican Tudor Queen Elizabeth I, the bishops of England were forced to choose between taking the Oath of Supremacy, thus denying the authority of the Pope, and losing their episcopal sees. Those who chose to continue their allegiance to Rome were subsequently deposed and replaced in their sees by priests of the Church of England. Most of the deposed Bishops were imprisoned in various locations and died in captivity over a period of years, though some left the country and continued their work overseas. The last of the deposed bishops was Thomas Goldwell, Bishop of St Asaph, who died in Rome on April 3, 1585.
