Patrick Brontë
The Reverend Patrick Brontë (, ''commonly'' ;〔As given by ''Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature'' (Merriam-Webster, incorporated, Publishers: Springfield, Massachusetts, 1995), p viii: "When our research shows that an author's pronunciation of his or her name differs from common usage, the author's pronunciation is listed first, and the descriptor ''commonly'' precedes the more familiar pronunciation." See also entries on Anne, Charlotte and Emily Brontë, pp 175–176.〕 17 March 1777 – 7 June 1861) was an Irish-English priest and author who spent most of his adult life in England and was the father of the writers Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Brontë and of Branwell Brontë, his only son. Patrick outlived all his children and his wife, the former Maria Branwell, by forty years.
==Origins==
Patrick Brunty (as he was originally named) was the first of ten children born to Hugh Brunty, a farm labourer, and Alice McClory,〔(Banbridge, Culture Northern Ireland )〕 in Drumballyroney (near Rathfriland), County Down. At one point in his adult life, he formally changed the spelling of his name from ''Brunty'' to ''Brontë'' (see the article on the Brontë family for theories for the change).
He had several apprenticeships (to a blacksmith, a linen draper, and a weaver) until he became a teacher in 1798. He moved to England in 1802 to study theology at St. John's College, Cambridge, and received his BA degree in 1806. He was then appointed curate at Wethersfield, near Braintree in Essex, where he was ordained a deacon of the Church of England in 1806, and into the priesthood in 1807.
