Hugh (Hugo) of Blois (Blesensis) (in the province of Tours) was a Capuchin brother, richly adorned with all virtues. 

According to the Flor. Seraph.* he died in 1605. In Hub. Men.*, where he occurs twice, Genoa is given as the place of his work or death, and on October 21 the year he died is specified as 1604, but on November 21 they say he passed away in 1606.
