  • Notes 
    • B.A., St. John's, Cambridge, 1564/5. He received his M.A. in 1658, then became rector of Brocklesby, Lincolnshire and chaplain to Thomas Sackville, Lord Buckhurst, First Earl of Dorset.

      He was vicar of Dalinghoo, Suffolk from 1569 to 1613, and, according to Wilcox (citation details below), rector of Glemham Parva, Suffolk from 1594 to 1610. But Wilcox also notes that on 11 Nov 1597 a deanery court presented and dismissed "William Handby, rector" from Glemham Parva because "He weareth not the surples but at the Comunion. He doeth not Catachise the yowth." Presumably he subsequently regained the parish.
