1623, in his 18th yr. whereas it seems much more likely that he was of
Cambridge Univ.) came over in 1637, was, freem. 13 Mar. 1639, ord. 24

Wren upon his diocese 1635, Brook, in Lives of the Pur. III. 456,

reason for conject. that he was of Surlingham in Norf. is found by Dr.
Lamson, his successor at D. in our day. His actual serv. however, had
been at Wrentham, Co. Suff. a. 30 miles N. E. from Ipswich. When I
