Henry Grey, 1st Duke of Suffolk
Henry Grey, 1st duke of Suffolk, 3rd Marquess of Dorset and Baron Ferrers of Groby, Harrington, Bonville and Astley (c.1515 – February 23, 1554) was an English nobleman of the Tudor period and the father of Lady Jane Grey.
Protestantism
Henry Grey was best known for his zeal for the Protestant faith. The Swiss reformer Henry Bullinger dedicated a book to him in 1551 and frequently corresponded with the family. In parliament and on the privy council, Grey pushed for further Protestant reforms. He is credited for making Leicestershire one of the most reliably Protestant counties in early modern England.
