John Lloyd (Bishop of St Davids)

John Lloyd (1638 – 13 February 1687), born at Pendine, Carmarthenshire, Wales, the son of Morgan Lloyd,[1] was principal of Jesus College, Oxford, vice-chancellor of the University of Oxford and Bishop of St David's.

Lloyd studied at Merton College, Oxford, from 1657 onwards, gaining his BA in 1659.

He was already in failing health when he reluctantly accepted the post of Bishop of St David's, and was consecrated on 17 October 1686 – the evidence does not suggest that he ever visited his diocese.
