William Ingram (priest)
William Clavell Ingram was an Anglican priest and the Dean of Peterborough in the Church of England from 1893 until his death in 1901.[1]
Born on 11 August 1834 at Chedburgh, Suffolk, the son of Rev. George Ingram and Jane Kaines Clavell, he was educated at Jesus College, Cambridge,.[2][3] He was a master at Lancing College[4] then a chaplain to HM Forces[5] before being appointed vicar of Kirk Michael, Isle of Man.[6] From 1874, he was vicar of St Matthew's, Leicester[7] before his elevation to the deanery. In 1900–1901, he wrote and published a biography of his friend, the Rev. Canon Henry Twells.[8]
He died on 26 April 1901, and three years later a memorial to him was put in place at Peterborough Cathedral.[9] The life-size marble effigy was carved by his brother Walter Rowlands Ingram.[10] The monument stands in the south-east section close to the burial place of Mary, Queen of Scots.
