William Wogan (1678 – 24 January 1758) was a religious writer, the son of Ethelred Wogan, the Rector of Gumfreston and Vicar of Penally, Pembroke. Born in Gumfreston, Wogan was known for his piety, and was on intimate terms with many of the evangelical leaders of the time such as George Whitefield and John Wesley. His manuscript correspondence with Sir Robert Southwell was purchased by the British Museum. In his retirement at Ealing he wrote a large number of religious works.〔(HtmlPedigree: text )〕 ==History== He was educated at Swansea Grammar School, Westminster School in 1694 (where he became Captain), and Trinity College in 1700. In 1718 he married Catherine Stanhope (a friend and protegee of Lady Elizabeth Hastings), and by her (who died on 19 June 1726) he had an only daughter, who was married to Robert Baynes, rector of Stonham Aspal, Suffolk. From about 1727, William lived at Ealing in Middlesex, but died at his daughter's house at Stonham Aspal, and was buried at Ealing on 29 January. He was secretary to the Charles Butler, 1st Earl of Arran.〔(Wesley’s Letters: 1737 )〕 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「William Wogan (religious writer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
