2 unusual facts about Ralph Morice


Ralph Morice

He had the farm of the parsonage of Chartham in Kent—that is to say he put in a curate, keeping the rest of the revenues.

Morice, from his official position, was in possession of information, and helped John Foxe and others in their literary researches, mainly by supplying them with his Anecdotes of Cranmer. This compilation was used by Strype in his Memorials of Cranmer, and was reprinted from the manuscript at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, in Narratives of the Reformation (Camden Society).
