John Horsley (antiquarian)
John Horsley (c. 1685 – 12 January 1732) was a British antiquarian, known primarily for his book ''Britannia Romana'' or ''The Roman Antiquities of Britain'' which was published in 1732.
==Early life==
John Hodgson, in a memoir published in 1831, held that Horsley was born in 1685, at Pinkie House, in the parish of Inveresk, Midlothian, and that his father was a Northumberland nonconformist, who had migrated to Scotland, but returned to England soon after the Glorious Revolution of 1688. John Hodgson Hinde, in the ''Archaeologia Aeliana'' of February 1865, held that he was a native of Newcastle-on-Tyne, the son of Charles Horsley, a member of the Tailors' Company of the town. David Boyd Haycock writing in the ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'' comments that none of the suggestions made for Horsley's background is verifiable.
He was educated at the Royal Grammar School, Newcastle〔http://www.seaham.i12.com/myers/m-horsley.html〕〔http://links.jstor.org/sici?sici=0075-4358(1932)22%3C161%3AJH%3E2.0.CO%3B2-G〕 and at Edinburgh University, where he graduated MA on 29 April 1701. There is evidence that he "was settled in Morpeth as a Presbyterian minister as early as 1709." Hodgson, however, thought that up to 1721, at which time he was residing at Widdrington, "he had not received ordination, but preached as a licentiate."
