Thomas Dangerfield
Thomas Dangerfield (ca. 1650 – 22 June 1685) was an English conspirator and one of the principal informers in the Popish Plot. He died violently, although whether the killing was murder or manslaughter was a matter of public debate at the time.
==Biography==
Dangerfield was born about 1650 at Waltham Abbey, Essex, the son of a farmer. At the age of 12 around 1662, he ran away from home to London, and never returned to his home.
He began his career by robbing his father, and, after a rambling life, took to coining false money, for which offence and others he was many times imprisoned: it was said later that to describe his career one need simply list every capital crime known to English law. 〔Kenyon, J. P. ''The Popish Plot'' Phoenix Press reissue 2000 p.216〕 Lord Chief Justice Scroggs later referred to him with contempt as "that fellow from Chelmsford gaol", and he also spent time in Newgate Prison.〔Kenyon p.227〕 He used a nunber of aliases, such as Willoughby.〔Kenyon p.216〕
