Thomas Fleming (bishop)
Thomas Fleming (1593–1665) was an Irish Franciscan and Roman Catholic Archbishop of Dublin; he was entitled to hold the title Baron Slane, but renounced it. He was the eldest son of Christopher Fleming, 12th Baron Slane and Eleanor, daughter of Patrick Barnewall and Mary Bagenal. On his father's death in 1625 he succeeded as 13th Baron, but renounced the title in favour of his brother William, 14th Baron. He studied at the Franciscan College at Leuven, became a priest of the Franciscan Order, and after finishing his studies continued at the Catholic University of Leuven for a number of years as a professor. In October 1623, he was appointed by Pope Urban VIII to the See of Dublin as successor of Eugene Matthews. His appointment gave great offence to opponents of the religious orders, and a bitter onslaught was begun against the new archbishop by the priest Paul Harris, in his ''Olfactorium'' and other brochures. Archbishop Fleming convened and presided at a provincial syn ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

People From County Meath
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...
