John Almond (monk)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Almond (1537 ā 18 April 1585) was a Cistercian monk. He is commemorated as a Confessor of the Faith in the Roman Catholic Church, and his name has been included in the supplementary process of the English Martyrs.[1]
He came from Cheshire, and was a monk in the time of Henry VIII, but neither his abbey nor his fate during and after its suppression have been identified.[1]
He died in prison at Hull Castle on 18 April 1585, having been imprisoned there since 1579.[2]
