Research Notes

Further research is required to determine who this profile is intended to represent.

• There is an unsourced Find A Grave memorial that matches the details on this Wikitree profile.^[1] The memorial claims that John Angell was chaplain to Queen Mary. If this is true, then as a Catholic priest he would not have been married with children.
• There is a Dictionary of National Biography entry for the John Angell who was Queen Mary's chaplain, but it seems little is known of him.^[2]
• Queen Mary's chaplain is also mentioned in a recent book, which contains citations to original documents.^[3]
• According to the CofE Clergy database, he died in 1568 (not 1572 as this profile currently states).^[4]
