John Jennings (priest)

John Jennings (1798 – 26 March 1883) was Archdeacon of Westminster from 1868 until his death in 1883.^[1]

Alumni Cantabrigienses previously identified the John Jennings educated at Emmanuel College, Cambridge as "doubtless" the Rector of St John's and Archdeacon of Westminster, but now states that this is a mistaken identity:^[2] Archdeacon Jennings was educated at Trinity College Dublin, graduating B.A. 1820, M.A. 1832.^[3]

After a curacy at West Meon, Hampshire, Jennings moved to St John's, Smith Square as a curate to Canon H. H. Edwards, succeeding Edwards as rector on Edwards' resignation in 1832. He became a canon of Westminster Abbey in 1837, Rural dean of St Margaret and St John, Archdeacon of Westminster in 1868, and Sub-Dean.^[3]
