James Waterworth (born St Helens, Lancashire, 1806; died 1876) was an English Catholic missionary priest. ==Life== James Waterworth was educated at Stonyhurst College and went subsequently to Montrouge to enter the novitiate of the Society of Jesus, in which he did not long continue. Sent by Bishop John Milner to study for the priesthood at the English College, Rome, he there devoted himself to theology, and especially patrology, often working sixteen hours a day. At the end of his course he was recalled to Oscott, where he was ordained, and where he taught theology from 1830 to 1833. He then went to assist Rev. J. Yver at Newark, where he spent over forty years as a missionary priest, still continuing his studies of the Fathers. Within a year or two he was placed in sole charge of the mission. He was made canon of Nottingham in 1852, doctor of divinity in 1860, and provost of that diocese in 1861. He died in Old Hall, Newark-on-Trent on 28 March 1876. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James Waterworth」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
