Norman, >>I have found information regarding his time at university and after but absolutely nothing before. Have you looked at this Clergy of the C of E website? Sometimes it will tell you which grammar school the person attended. Sometimes there is very little information. But if you have data with sources, they will add it to the person's entry. http://eagle.cch.kcl.ac.uk:8080/cce/index.html Liane

Hi Liane Many thanks for your reply. I had already looked at this source but it does not give any additional information. Even the university archive does not have anything to help, hence my query regarding criteria for entrance to Cambridge University in 1688 in the hope that it may show where to start looking for him.
