Foster: of Somerset, cler. fil. Trinity Coll., matric. 24 Oct., 1595, aged 20; B.A. from Queen's Coll. 24 April, 1599; M.A. from St. Edmund Hall 21 Jan., 1601-2, B.D. 31 May, 1609; canon of Lichfield 1611, vicar of Frome Selwood 1606, and rector of Lamyat (both Somerset), 1614, until his death 6 July, 1640, aged 66, buried at Frome, his will dated 12 April, and proved 12 Aug., 1640; father of the next-named.
If Foster is correct about his age, then he received a canonry at Wells aged 15! However, the evidence suggests that Anthony Methwin, eventually BD, held the canonry of Combe XI 1590-1621, then the canonry of Ilton 1621-40. Not to be confused with his son Anthony Methwin (d. 1641), vicar of Ilton (Clergy ID 175636).
Anthony Methwin's will is dated 20 April 1640 and was proved on 12 Aug. 1640. In it he left bequests to the cathedrals of Wells and Lichfield, and to the parishes of Frome and Lamyat: TNA, PROB 11/183/682.
