 The Marian Apparitions: Divine Intervention or Delusion?
The Marian visions were in line with popular demand, and encouraged by the ecclesiastical authorities, were important in reviving a declining Catholicism.
Marian ecumenists believe that the Virgin is bringing an ecumenical message at Zeitoun and Medjugorje and that as mother of the entire human family she has a special role to play as a centre of unity and reconciler of quarrelsome children, so to speak.
As stated previously, this was why we have not included Walsingham among the Marian shrines, as the message, whether revealed to Richeldis in a private vision or a dream, was a simple request for a chapel in honour of the incarnation.

 John Foxe's Book of Martyrs
The account of Taylor's parish of Hadleigh, the martyr's background and behaviour as pastor of Hadleigh, Taylor's quarrel with catholic residents of the town, his refusal to flee, his arrest and journey to London, his examinations by Stephen Gardiner and Edmund Bonner, his imprisonment and his deprivation were all added to the 1563 edition.
The Marian government, as is apparent from Foxe, was deeply reluctant to release Coverdale; he had been the bishop of Exeter in the previous reign and, along with Cranmer, Ridley, Latimer, Barlow, Hooper and Ferrar he was among the members of the Edwardian episcopate targeted by the new regime.
Foxe's complete account of these martyrs appeared in the 1563 edition; it seems to have been drawn from a description of the examination of the six martyrs by a sympathetic observer, although it is possible that it was drawn from an official record.

 Freeman - The account of Anne Askew in Foxe's "Book of Martyrs"
Foxe's first account of the martyr, printed in the Rerum, was, as we have observed, largely a translation of her Examinations.
Askew's Examinations are prefaced in the Rerum by a prolix introduction, in which Foxe declares that the martyrs offer examples to be imitated by Christians in their daily struggles against the sins of the world, a godly corrective to the existing monuments that trumpet the glory of secular heroes.

Foxe's accounts of martyrs condemned in the diocese of Rochester earlier in Mary's reign were based on extracts from the diocesan registers.
The identity of one of these martyrs is clear and verifiable: a notice of the excommunication and condemnation of Robert Frier of Tunbridge, dated 11 June 1557, survives (PRO C/85/144/36).

 John Rogers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
(1) The first leading English Reformer who broke the ice and crossed the river, as a martyr in Mary's reign, was John Rogers, a London Minister, Vicar of St Sepulchre, and Prebendary and Reader of Divinity at St Paul's.
Rogers' examination before Gardiner gives us the idea of his being a bold, thorough Protestant, who had fully made up his mind on all points of the Romish controversy, and was able to give a reason for his opinions.
Up to that day men could not tell how English Reformers would behave in the face of death, and could hardly believe that Prebendaries and Dignitaries would actually give their bodies to be burned for their religion.

John Hooper (born 1495-1500; died February 9, 1555) was an English churchman, Bishop of Gloucester and Worcester and a Marian martyr.
Hooper is said to have been born in Somerset to a wealthy family, but he may have been born and raised in Devon or Oxfordshire.

Hooper was sent down to suffer at Gloucester, where he was burnt on 9 February, meeting his fate with steadfast courage and unshaken conviction.Hooper was the first of the bishops to suffer because he represented the extreme reforming party in England.
He would have reduced episcopacy to narrow limits; and his views had considerable influence on the Puritans of Elizabeths reign, when many editions of Hoopers various works were published.Two voltimes of Hoopers writings are included in the Parker Societys publications and another edition appeared at Oxford in 1855.
