Ralph Venning
Ralph Venning (c. 1621 – 10 March 1673 or 1674) was an English nonconformist Christian.
==Life==
The son of Francis and Joan Venning, he was born in Devon, perhaps at Kingsteignton, about 1621. He was the first convert of George Hughes, the puritan vicar of Tavistock. He was educated at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, where he was admitted as a sizar on 1 April 1643, graduated B.A. 1646, and proceeded M.A. 1650.
He held a lectureship at St Olave's Church in the parish of Southwark St Olave, where he had a great repute as a preacher of charity sermons. Ejected by the Uniformity Act 1662, he became a colleague to Robert Bragge (1627–1704), pastor of an independent congregation at Pewterers' Hall, Lime Street, Fenchurch Street, and held this charge till his death.
He died on 10 March 1674, in his fifty-third year, and was buried in Bunhill Fields. ''An Elegy'' on his death was printed on a broadsheet in March 1674. He married Hannah, widow of John Cope of London, and left a son, and a daughter Hannah (d. 7 June 1691). Of his style, John Edwards remarked in ''The Preacher'' (1705, i. 203): "He turns sentences up and down, and delights in little cadences and chiming of words."
