    John received a BA from Oxford on 8 Mar. 1573/4 and was called to be the rector of Alcester, Warwickshire on 20 June 1578. On 16 Sept. 1580 he also became the rector at Beaudesert. This practice of pluralism was frowned upon as the parish in which the minister didn't reside was almost always left without a minster. John lived in Alcester and he did appoint a curate to serve Beaudesert, however, the Puritans stated that he "hath a dumbe hireling, one Roger smith, a common alehouse haunter" at that parish. In 1595 he was appointed as minister of Kimcote and Walton in Leicestershire and moved there shortly after 1606.(1)
