Blessed Thomas Holford : ウィキペディア英語版 | Thomas Holford
Blessed Thomas Holford (sometimes called Thomas Acton) (1541-1588) was an English Protestant schoolteacher who became a Catholic priest during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. He was martyred at Clerkenwell in London, and is recognised by the Catholic Church as having the status of ''Blessed''. ==Early life== Thomas Holford, the son of a minister, was born in 1541 near Nantwich, Cheshire, at Aston〔'The Seminary Priests', Godfrey Anstruther, published by St Edmund's College, Ware and Ushaw College, Durham, 1968, entry for Thomas Holford〕 or possibly Acton.〔(Nine Martyrs of the Shrewsbury Diocese ) by Kevin Byrne, accessed 7 November 2012〕 He was raised as a Protestant and became a schoolteacher. He moved to Herefordshire to become resident tutor to the children of Sir James Scudamore of Holme Lacy. There, through the ministry of a Catholic priest, Richard Davis, he became a Catholic himself. On 18 August 1582, Holford entered the seminary at Rheims, where he trained to become a Catholic priest. He was ordained at Laon 9 April 1583 and was sent to England on 4 May the same year.〔
