Thomas Holland was a 17th-century English Jesuit priest and theologian who served the Catholic mission in his native country. Born in Lancashire around 1600, he received his education at colleges in St. Omer's and Valladolid. After joining the Society of Jesus, he held various roles, including serving as a prefect at St. Omer's. Despite facing significant health challenges and the constant threat of arrest while operating in London, he remained dedicated to his ministry until his execution at Tyburn in 1642.
