John Almond was a Cistercian monk. He is commemorated as a Confessor of the Faith in the Roman Catholic Church, and his name has been included in the supplementary process of the English Martyrs.cite book|last=Herbermann|first=Charles George|title=The Catholic Encyclopedia|publisher=Universal Knowledge Foundation|date=1913|pages=p328|url=http://books.google.com/books?id=FmgQAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA328&dq=%22John+Almond%22+1585&lr=lang_en&num=50&as_brr=3&ei=zkRaSIedDKHOjgH25ICSDA]

He came from Cheshire, and was a monk in the time of Henry VIII, but neither his abbey nor his fate during and after its suppression have been identified.
