Date17th Century

DescriptionThese volumes are the result of the work done by Christopher Grene SJ (1629-1697) to collect evidence to justify the canonization of English martyrs. There were eleven volumes, six of which are held at the Archives. An overview of the remaining volumes is given here:

Collectanea A: we know of it from references in other codices. The edition apparently was broken up and certain items are among the Anglia manuscripts.

Collectanea D: lost or not identified.

Collectanea E: Oscott College, perhaps part of Dr John Kirk’s legacy. Kirk was the last student admitted to the English College, Rome, before the Suppression.

Collectanea F: English College, Rome. Collectanea G: may have been broken up and lost; seems to have contained many documents in Spanish. Some documents are among the Anglia papers.
AccessConditionsThe papers are available subject to the usual conditions of access to archive material in the Jesuits in Britain Archives.
