London ordination records give him as late of Magdalen Hall, Oxford. 1613 liber cleri states that he is not a graduate.
At the time of ordination, he was living in Codford: letters testimoinal of two Wilts. JPs and of many preachers.
Not in Foster.
Linked the C. of Longbridge Deverell with the C. of the Codfords because of the closeness of the parishes and rarity of the name.
