Tống Duy Tân

Tống Duy Tân (1838 - 1892) was a Vietnamese revolutionary who led insurgent armies in Thanh Hóa Province of northern Vietnam as part of the Cần Vương movement that sought to install the boy Emperor Hàm Nghi as the leader of an independent Vietnam. He was captured in 1892 by the French colonial forces and executed.[1][2]

Tống Duy Tân was born in 1838, under the reign of Emperor Minh Mạng, in Đông Biện village, Bồng Thượng canton (now is Bồng Trung village, Vĩnh Tân commune) of Vĩnh Lộc district, Thanh Hóa province. He graduated Bachelor degree in Thi Hương [vi] exam 1870, and gained Doctorate title in Thi Hội [vi] exam 1875, then became an official in Ministry of Justice under the reign of Emperor Tự Đức.

In 1876, he was assigned as reviewer of Thi Hương exam school in Nam Định, then promoted to Tri phủ [vi] (Prefect) of Vĩnh Tường canton, Sơn Tây province (now is separated to Vĩnh Tường and 4 other districts of Vĩnh Phúc province, and 2 districts of Phú Thọ province).[3]
