  1. Numerous Protestant leaders were executed in the Marian Persecutions. Many rich Protestants chose exile, and around 800 left the country. The first to die were John Rogers (4 February 1555), Laurence Saunders (8 February 1555), Rowland Taylor (9 February 1555), and John Hooper, the Bishop of Gloucester (9 February 1555). The persecution lasted for almost four years. It is not known exactly how many died. John Foxe estimates in his Book of Martyrs that 284 were executed for their faith. The Marian persecutions are commemorated especially by bonfires in the town of Lewes in Sussex: there is a prominent martyrs' memorial outside St John's church at Stratford, London, to those Protestants burnt in Essex, and others in Christchurch Park Ipswich and the abbey grounds, Bury St Edmunds, to those executed in East and West Suffolk respectively.


  2. A Thomas Hubbard was burned at the stake 5 May 1555, in Essex County ,England, for refusing to recant his Protestantism

    Burned at the stake during the rein of Queen ( Bloody ) Mary in 1555 for refusing to give up Protestantism. His fate was mentioned in Fox's " Book of Martyrs" Book 111 Chapter 14 under the name of Thomas Higbed

    There is a darker side to the Bell's history. During Mary Tudor's troublesome reign, a local landowner, Thomas Higbed, was accused of heresy. He was put on trial, found guilty and sentenced to be burned at the stake. This execution took place in an area at the rear the Bell.

    Note: A plaque on a wall at the Bell Inn states:

    Note: 'This just shall live by faith' [Hebrews 10:38]. On 26 March, 1555, Thomas Higbed, a gentleman of Horndon House, was burnt at the stake in the courtyard of the Bell Inn for his Protestant faith

    Alias: "The /Martyr"/

    Cause of Death: burned at the stake

    "The Ancesters and Descendants of Rev. Henry Clark" by C.C. VanDauenter 1902:

    Thomas Hubbard, grandfather of Samuel was a gentleman residing at Hornden-on-the-hill, in Essex, England, "of good estate and great determination, and zelous and religious in the truservice of God. "discovered by an informer to Bishop Bonner, he was seized, imprisoned and burned at the stake May 26, 1555. It is believed that the story of Thomas Highbed in Fox's Book of Martyrs refers to him ...

    English Martyrolog, abridged from the Fox-Book 3 chapt. 14:

    Thomas Higbed and Thomas Causton were 2 gentlemen of Essex, of such property and estimation, that when they were reported to Bonner as holding scriptural doctrines, he apparently feared the consequences of summoning them to London, and went himself to attempt privily their perversions from the truth.
