Hugh Jermyn

Hugh Willoughby Jermyn (25 August 1820 – 17 September 1903) was an Anglican bishop in the second half of the 19th century[1] and the very start of the 20th.

He was born in Swaffham, the son of George Bitton Jermyn, and educated at Westminster and Trinity Hall, Cambridge.

[2] Ordained in 1845,[3] his career began as a curate at Kensington Parish Church after which he was incumbent of St John's, Forres.

He returned to Britain in 1858 to be Rural Dean of Dunster before being appointed Vicar of Barking.
