LOMBARD, PETER, son of — Lombard, Waterford, co.Waterford, Ireland, merchant ; b. ; at school under Camden (see Camden to Ussher 10 Jul 1618, Original Letters of Eminent Literary Men, Camden Society, 1st Series, xxiii, 125, where Lombard is described as “a merchant’s son of Waterford, a youth of admirable docility”). [Russell Barker and Stenning identify this Peter Lombard as Louvain Univ., graduate in arts 1575 ; DD 30 Aug 1594 ; ordained as Catholic priest ; Canon of collegiate church of Siclin, Tournai diocese ; Provost of Cambrai Cathedral 1594 ; went to Rome 1598, remaining there until his death ; Roman Catholic Archbishop of Armagh (and Primate of Ireland) from 9 Jul 1601, receiving pall 14 Dec 1601, but never went to his diocese ; allowed by Pope to retain his preferments in the Spanish Netherlands ; denounced by James I in 1614 as a disturber of the government ; author, De Regno Hiberniae Sanctorum Insula Commentarius, 1632 ; d. near Rome shortly after Sep 1625. ODNB. But the identification must be incorrect, in that the Peter Lombard concerned would have been at school under Grant, not under Camden (William Camden only becoming Under Master in 1575, by when this individual had already been at Louvain for at least three years (he graduated MA in 1572, not 1575 as stated in Record), and not being appointed Head Master until 1593) ; maybe the Peter Lombard taught by Camden at Westminster was a cousin]
