Foster: son of George of Hereford (city), DD (CCED ID 35323); CHRIST CHURCH matric. 15 July 1669 aged 17; student 1669; BA 1673; MA 12 Mar. 1675/6; R of Cradley, Worcs. 1682; R Upper Ledbury 1702; prebendary of Hereford 1691 until his death 28 May 1713; father of George 1703 (CCED ID 7661); see Foster Ind. Eccles, and Al. West.
Also clearly father of Martin, later Bishop of Gloucester.
There is a slight possibility that this man could be same as IDs 73615 and 61454 except for the ordination dates which are too early; other appointments in Chichester diocese, canon of Wisborough could be related to him since his father,(qv) according to Walker's 'Sufferings' was also canon of Wisborough from about 1660 and his son John might have taken his place or come a little later - much of his father's appointments appear missing from CCED presumably because of what happened to him during the Commonwealth. Also date of death for John as canon of Chichester given in same month as John, canon of Hereford
