family notes

From http://www.blackfamilygenealogy.org/sir-thomas-southworth-and-rosamond-lister/

Sir John Southworth and Mary Asheton had eleven children (7s. 4da). Three of the sons played notable roles in history.

The oldest, a son, John, is a canonized saint:

From In Search of St John Southworth

"Born in 1592, St John Southworth devoted his life to caring for and administering the Sacraments to the poor and plague victims in and around the area of London where Westminster Cathedral now stands. He was martyred for his faith on 28 June 1654. His remains are now kept in the Chapel of St George and the English Martyrs in Westminster Cathedral. He was beatified in 1929 and canonized as one of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales by Pope Paul VI in 1970."

Another son, also a priest, (Christopher) apparently inherited the title of knight. He had a different set of values. The following is taken from page 93 of "A History of Blackburn, Town and Parish":

"The seminary priest who was declared on the trial to have incited the girl Grace Sowerbutts to make the charge of witchcraft against Jane Southworth and the other females, called himself by the name of Thompson, but he was asserted to be Christopher Southworth, fourth son of Sir John Southworth, Knt, and therefore uncle to John Southworth, the husband of the accused Jane Southworth. Christopher Southworth was a priest of the Roman Church, and endured a term of imprisonment in the Castle of Wisbeach for recusancy in Elizabeth's reign. The representation of the friends of the accused on her trial seems to have been that Christopher Southworth was inimical to John Southworth's family on account of their disposition to forsake the former religion of the family, Jane Southworth having recently entered the Protestant Church ...."

Another son, Thomas, and his wife, Rosamond Lister, had seven sons and four daughters, who were living in 1595 when their grandfather made his will mentioning them. Two of these children were Thomas and Edward who were in Leiden, Holland in 1613 where many Protestants were gathering because Holland allowed freedom of religion while England required unyielding allegiance to the Church of England.Thomas Southworth, Esq. remained in Holland while others of the family came to America.
