Feastday: October 19
1557 - 1595

One of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales. Philip was the earl of Arundel and Surrey and, although a Catholic, led a religiously apathetic life until his personal conversion, after which he was a zealous Catholic in the midst of Elizabethan England. Arrested by authorities, he was placed in the Tower of London in 1585 and condemned to death in 1589. The sentence was never carried out, and Philip languished in the Tower until his death at the age of thirty eight. Beatified in 1929, he was included among the English martyrs canonized in 1970 by Pope Paul VI.

Interested because I believe I am related through my mother to the Howard family and through her directly to Lady Eleanor Of Poynings who was married to Percy, third Earl of Northunberland. Possibly half of England is attached in some way to this family tree.
