The fact that the ordination records, the appointment at Northstoke and the appointment of the schoolmaster at Newnham Murren all relate to a BA from St John's suggests that they are all the same person.
Foster: Burges, Robert, s. Robert, of Wallingford, Berks, paup. Gloucester Hall, matric 4 July 1681, aged 18; BA from St John's Coll 1686.
