Foster: pleb. QUEEN'S COLL. matric. 2 July 1658 (as 'ser'.); B.A. 1661, rector of Shottesbrooke, Berks., 1662, and vicar of White Waltham 1672, father of Richard 1683 (ID 12014). See Foster's Ind. Eccles.
On his ordination as deacon in 1661 he is described as vicar of Shottesbrooke, which indicates it is an episcopal re-ordination and therefore the note of the death of Richard Cleare on the vacancy is probably a clerical error.
