Biography

Blessed Hugh Taylor, born around 1559 in Durham, England, was a courageous Catholic priest and one of the Martyrs of England, Scotland, and Wales. Little is known about his early life, but he later studied at Rheims, France, where he deepened his knowledge and devotion to the Catholic faith. After completing his studies, Taylor was ordained as a priest in 1584.
