Thomas Gatacre (by 1533–1593) was an English politician and cleric.
He was the third son of William Gatacre, and was an MP of the Parliament of England for Gatton in April 1554.[1] His background was a strongly Catholic family at Gatacre Hall, Claverley, Shropshire. His parents sent him to the English college at the University of Leuven. The effect was not as expected, since it strengthened his evangelical Protestantism.[2]
Gatacre died in 1593, his successor at St. Edmund's being instituted on 2 June in that year. He had married Margaret Pigott, of a Hertfordshire family, and left a son Thomas.[2]
