'''Sebastian Newdigate''', [[Carthusians|O.Cart]] (7 September 1500 – 19 June 1535) was the seventh child of John Newdigate, [[Sergeant-at-law]]. He spent his early life at court, and later became a [[Carthusian]] [[monk]]. He was executed for [[treason]] on 19 June 1535 for his refusal to accept [[Henry VIII of England|Henry VIII]]'s assumption of supremacy over the Church in England. His death was considered a [[martyr]]dom, and he was [[beatification|beatified]] by the Catholic Church.

Line 41 ⟶ 44:
However Hendriks and Doreau question whether Newdigate ever married,<ref>{{Harvnb|Hendriks|1889|p=99}}.</ref><ref name=Origines>[https://books.google.com/books?id=NGovAQAAMAAJ&pg=PA251 Doreau, Dom Victor Marie, 'Origines du Schisme d’ Angleterre: Henri VIII et les Martyrs de la Chartreuse de Londres', ''The Athenaeum'', July to December 1891, pp. 250-251] Retrieved 2 April 2013.</ref> and Richardson states that Newdigate's alleged wife, Katherine Hampden, widow of Henry Ferrers, and daughter and heiress of Sir John Hampden, married a different member of the Newdigate family, Thomas Newdigate, gentleman, of [[Wivelsfield]], [[Sussex]], the son of Walter Newdigate.<ref>{{Harvnb|Richardson II|2011|p=333}}.</ref>
 
It is said that Newdigate entered the [[London Charterhouse]], a [[Carthusian]] priory, after his wife's death<ref>{{Harvnb|Betham|19031803|p=12}}.</ref> in 1524,<ref name=wainewright>[http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/13668b.htm Wainewright, John. "Bl. Sebastian Newdigate." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 13. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1912. 12 Jan. 2013]</ref> However it is unlikely that Newdigate's admission as a postulant could have occurred prior to 24 October 1526, when the King granted him a wardship.<ref name=Origines/>
 
Not long after Newdigate became a novice, his sister, Jane, who in 1512 had married Sir Robert Dormer of [[Wing, Buckinghamshire]],<ref>{{Harvnb|Richardson III|2011|p=255}}.</ref> visited the Prior, William Tynbygh, to express her concern about Newdigate's suitability for the strictness of the monastic life after his early years at court.<ref>{{Harvnb|Hendriks|1889|pp=100–4}}.</ref> Despite his sister's misgivings, Newdigate remained at the Charterhouse. He was ordained a [[deacon]] on 3 June 1531, and was ordained to the priesthood before his death.<ref name="Bainbridge 2004"/>
