 He must not be confused with his cousin, Henry More (born 1567), who was son of Thomas More and Mary Scrope.More was born in 1586 in Essex, according to the majority of the provincial catalogues, though a few of them give Cambridgeshire as the county of his birth.He made his humanity studies in the college of the English Jesuits at St. Omer, and entered the novitiate of St. John's, Louvain, 19 November 1607.
