Robert Evans (Archdeacon of Westmorland) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Robert Evans (Archdeacon of Westmorland) Robert Wilson Evans (30 August 1789 – 10 March 1866) was an English cleric and author, Archdeacon of Westmorland from 1856 until his death a decade later.〔The Lancaster Gazette, and General Advertiser for Lancashire, Westmorland, Yorkshire, &c. (Lancaster, England), Saturday, March 17, 1866〕 ==Life== Evans was born at the Council House, Shrewsbury, the second son of John Evans, M.D., of Llwynygroes, near Oswestry, by his wife, Jane Wilson. He was educated under Samuel Butler at Shrewsbury School, and proceeded to Trinity College, Cambridge in 1807. There he became seventh wrangler, second chancellor's medallist, and B.A. 1811, M.A. 1814, and B.D. 1842. Having obtained a Trinity fellowship in 1813, he was elected classical tutor of the college in the following year, having George Peacock, afterwards Dean of Ely, as his colleague. In 1836 his former master, Dr. Butler, then bishop of Lichfield, made him his examining chaplain, and collated him to the vicarage of Tarvin, Cheshire. Here he found parish work in abundance, the experience of which is given in his ''Bishopric of Souls''. In 1842 he accepted from his college the vicarage of Heversham, a place within a morning drive of the finest of the Westmoreland scenery. One of his first acts was to build a new vicarage house on the shoulders of Heversham Head, a spot from which he commanded a most extensive view. He was appointed Archdeacon of Westmorland in 1856, resigning the position in January 1865 because of his age. He died at Heversham vicarage 10 March 1866.
