Anthony Page was a 16th-century English Catholic priest who was later beatified. Born in Harrow-on-the-Hill, he studied at Christ Church, Oxford, before moving to the English College in Reims to pursue his vocation. He received minor orders in 1585, becoming a deacon in 1590 and a priest in 1591. Known for his notable piety and gentle character, he was eventually captured in Yorkshire during a search for clergy and executed for his religious identity.
