Herbert Jenner-Fust

[1] He was called to the bar at Gray's Inn on 27 November 1800, admitted an advocate in the ecclesiastical and admiralty courts, and a fellow of the College of Doctors of Law on 8 July 1803.

The fellows of Trinity Hall elected him Master in February 1843; but he never resided there, although he held this appointment, in conjunction with the deanery of the arches, to his decease.

In this case, which lasted three years (1847–50), Henry Phillpotts, charging the clergyman George Cornelius Gorham with heresy, refused to institute him to the vicarage of Brampford Speke, Devonshire.

Fust's decree of 2 August 1849 in this matter was the subject of much debate, and led to the publication of at least eighty pamphlets.

[2] Anne's son, Charles Nepean was a Middlesex county cricketer who also played football, and was on the winning side in the 1874 FA Cup Final.
