John Lawrence (martyr)
John Lawrence was a sixteenth-century English Protestant martyr. His story was recorded in Foxe's Book of Martyrs.
He was executed in Colchester, Essex; he apparently had to be taken to the stake in a chair because the irons he had been kept in in prison and the lack of food had left him too weak.[1]
