About Thomas Louis Green
Lived 1799 – 1883 (aged 83–84).
Thomas Louis Green (1799–1883) was an English Catholic priest and apologist.
His first posting as a priest was in Norwich from 1828 to 1830 where he gained a reputation as a controversial preacher but refused a public debate because of the chances of anti-Catholic riots. He later became a chaplain to Catholic gentry first to Sir Thomas Clifford-Constable and then after postings in his old seminary in Oscott, a priory in Coventry and two parishes in Shropshire, he became chaplain to Lord Acton in 1860.
He contributed to the Catholic periodicals "Orthodox Journal", "Catholic Magazine" and "True Tablet".
