Thomas Hyde (1524–1597), was an English Roman Catholic academic, teacher, priest and exile.
[1] He resigned his fellowship at New College in 1550, and in 1551 succeeded William Everard as headmaster of Winchester.
[2] A fervent Catholic, Hyde was forced to resign his offices after Elizabeth I's accession, and was ordered to the custody of the lord treasurer by the ecclesiastical commissioners in 1561.
He then went abroad, and lived for some years at Leuven; William Allen commended his counsel and abilities in a letter dated 1579.
