List of Catholic martyrs of the English Reformation

List of Catholic martyrs of the English Reformation

The Catholic martyrs of England are men and women who died for the Catholic faith in the years between 1535 and 1680. They have officially been recognized as martyrs by the Roman Catholic Church. The vast majority were executed under treason laws which were amended to make refusing to assent to the royal supremacy over the Church, or being (or harbouring) a Catholic priest, into treasonable offences. Those convicted were liable under the treason laws to be executed by a process of hanging, disembowelling while still alive, and the body then being hacked into quarters - and some of the martyrs were executed in this manner, although others were either hanged in the "normal" way or beheaded.They include:

*The Forty Martyrs of England and Wales (including Saint Edmund Campion and Saint Margaret Clitherow)

*The Eighty-five martyrs of England and Wales, beatified on 22 November 1987

*The 18 Carthusian Martyrs

*Saint John Fisher, an English bishop and cardinal
