John Inett (1647–1717) was an English cleric and church historian. ==Life== His father Richard Inett married into the Hungerford family of Down Ampney, Gloucestershire. He attended Bewdley grammar school, and then aged 14 went to University College, Oxford, in 1661. He matriculated there on 17 July 1663, graduating B.A. in 1666 and M.A. in 1669. He was ordained deacon by William Nicholson, the Bishop of Gloucester on 22 September 1667, aged 20. Inett was presented to the rectory of St Ebbe's Church, Oxford, where he made the acquaintance of Thomas Barlow, who recommended him to Sir Richard Newdigate, 1st Baronet. Newdigate had him presented by the Crown to the vicarage of Nuneaton, Warwickshire, in 1678, and Inett acted as Newdigate's chaplain at Arbury Hall, Warwickshire.〔 In February 1681 (N.S.) Bishop Barlow appointed Inett precentor of Lincoln Cathedral. In 1685 he was presented by the dean and chapter to the living of Tansor in Northamptonshire.〔 In 1700 Inett was appointed chaplain in ordinary to William III. He was incorporated member of St John's College, Cambridge, in 1701, and took the degree of D.D. in that university, to which he sent two of his sons. In 1706 he resigned the living of Tansor in favour of his son Richard, and took instead that of Clayworth, Nottinghamshire. In 1714 he was presented by the crown to the living of St Mary's Church, Wirksworth, Derbyshire.〔 Inett died in 1717, and a tablet was erected by his widow to his memory in Lincoln Cathedral.〔 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「John Inett」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
