Thomas Crispe

He was born in Kilkenny, 1623, entered the Society c January 1645 at Villagarcia, having already begun his ecclesiastical studies.

He was teaching Grammar at Oviedo in 1648 having, apparently, finished his Philosophy.

Nothing further is known of him except that he died in 1651 in Ireland, according the Libro de difunciones.

It is unlikely that he would have been sent back to recuperate his health in Ireland in or after 1649. The late Father MacErlean has suggested that “en Irlanda” might mean among the Irish at Salamanca.
