John Carter (priest)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Carter was an Anglican priest.[1]

Carter was born in Luton and educated at Trinity College, Cambridge.[2] He was ordained on 19 September 1630. He was Rector of Settrington from 1641 to 1646; and Archdeacon of Chester from 1660[3] until his death.[4] A plaque on the wall of Settrington church details his death to be 28 February in either 1666, or 1667.[5][6]

Between 1644 and 1662, Carter was ejected (dispossed) from his living at Settrington; he was re-instated around the time of the Reformation.[5]
