Extract

The family of Vaux of Harrowden, which has kept the Faith to this day, has received less than its due in Catholic reference books. G-illow devotes six lines to Thomas, 2nd Lord Vaux, but makes no allusion to the rest. William, the 3rd Lord, was a friend of Edmund Campion, S.J., and suffered imprisonment on his behalf. His daughters, Eleanor and Anne, were the devoted friends of Henry Garnet, S.J.: his eldest son, Henry, resigned the title to become a Jesuit, but died early. His daughter-in-law, Elizabeth, was the host of John Gerard, S.J., at Harrowden. Seven members of the family suffered imprisonment for the Faith at various times. Nothing more is here attempted than a list of the members of the family with the dates (where known) of their births, marriages and deaths.
