Thomas Walsingham
Thomas Walsingham (died c. 1422) was an English chronicler, to whom we owe much of our knowledge of the reigns of Richard II, Henry IV and Henry V, and the careers of John Wycliff and Wat Tyler.
Walsingham was a Benedictine monk who spent most of his life at St. Albans Abbey, where he was superintendent of the copying-room (scriptorarius). His works include ''Chronicon Angliæ'', controversially attacking John of Gaunt, and ''Ypodigma Neustriæ'' (Chronicle of Normandy), justifying Henry V’s invasion, and dedicated to him in 1419.
Walsingham was no relation to Sir Francis Walsingham, spymaster to Queen Elizabeth I.
== Life ==
He became a monk at St Albans, where he appears to have passed the whole of his monastic life, excepting a period from 1394 to 1396 during which he was prior of Wymondham Abbey, Norfolk, England, another Benedictine house. At St Albans he was in charge of the ''scriptorium'', or writing room, and he died about 1422.
