Edmund Venables (1819–1895) was an English cleric and antiquarian. ==Life== Born at 17 Queenhithe, London on 5 July 1819, he was third son of William Venables (d 1840), paper-maker and stationer at 17 Queenhithe, who was Lord Mayor of London in 1826, and M.P. for the 1831–2; his mother, Ann Ruth Fromow, was of Huguenot descent. He was educated at Merchant Taylors' school from July 1830, and in 1838 matriculated at Pembroke College, Cambridge, becoming a scholar (29 May 1839). In 1842 he graduated B.A., as third wrangler. In 1845 he proceeded M.A., and he was admitted ''ad eundem'' at Oxford on 17 December 1856. As an undergraduate he was one of the founders of the Cambridge Camden Society. Venables was ordained deacon by Ashurst Gilbert, the bishop of Chichester in 1844, as curate to Archdeacon Julius Hare, rector of Hurstmonceux in Sussex, and remained there until 1853. In 1846 he was ordained priest by Edward Stanley, the bishop of Norwich. From 1853 to 1855 he was curate at Bonchurch in the Isle of Wight, and for some years after 1855 he remained there, taking pupils.〔 Venables was appointed by Bishop John Jackson as his examining chaplain at Lincoln, and continued in that position when his diocesan was translated to London in 1869. In 1865 Jackson appointed him to the prebendal stall of Carlton with Thurlby in Lincoln Cathedral, and in 1867 precentor and canon-residentiary of the cathedral.〔 Venables died at the Precentory, Lincoln, on 5 March 1895.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Edmund Venables」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
