Thomas Collier (painter)
Thomas Collier RI (12 November 1840 – 14 May 1891) was an English landscape painter. Biography Collier was born in Glossop in Derbyshire, the son of Martha Siddall and Thomas Collier, who was a prosperous grocer and tea dealer. He received tuition at the Manchester School of Art and, inspired by David Cox's example, lived at Betws-y-Coed in northern Wales between 1864 and 1869. He moved to London in about 1870 on being elected to the New Water Colour Society. Collier was a close friend of Charles Stuart Millard, the Canadian-born painter (who moved to England before 1879 and was employed as an instructor at the South Kensington Art School, before taking up an appointment as Headmaster at the Cheltenham School of Art). Although not a prolific worker or exhibitor, he is regarded as one of the finest of English landscape watercolourists. He was made a Chevalier of the Legion of Honour in recognition of a painting sent to the Paris International Exhibition of 1878. Coll ...

Thomas Collier (Unitarian)
Thomas Collier (c. 1615 – c. 1691) was an English General Baptist preacher, evangelist, and Arian polemicist. Life Thomas Edwards in his ''Gangræna'' alleged that Collier originally was an illiterate carter or husbandman. In 1634, when he is described as of Witley, Surrey, he was complained of for obstinately refusing to pay taxations in the tithing of Enton, in the parish of Godalming, where he had an estate. The taxes included the ship money which Charles I of England had tried to levy without the consent of Parliament. Becoming a Baptist and preacher, though without academic education, he preached for some time in Guernsey, where he made many converts, but ultimately he and some of his followers were banished from the island for their views and turbulent behaviour, and he was imprisoned at Portsmouth. In, or perhaps shortly before, 1646 he was a preacher at York. About the same period there are traces of him at Guildford, Lymington, Southampton, Waltham, Poole, Taunton, ...
