an English Congregational minister, was born at Olney, Buckinghamshire, Dec. 11, 1788. In 1806 he joined the Church, and afterwards gave up his business and commenced teaching at Sherington, near his native place. For some years he preached occasionally, at the same time studying under Rev. J. Morris, of Olney, and afterwards under Rev. J. P. Bull at Newport Pagnel. In 1827 he was invited to Great Horwood, where he remained over three years. He then removed to Churchover, Warwickshire, and thence, after sixteen years pastorate, to Tollesbury, Essex. He left Essex in 1849, and returned to Churchover, where he remained till his death, Oct. 12, 1856. He was an instructive, useful, and evangelical preacher. See (Lond.) Cong. Yearbook, 1857, p. 169.
