Foster: son of Simon of Daventry, Northants., gent., LINCOLN COLLEGE; matric. 27 Jan. 1710/11 aged 17; BA 1714; MA 1717; died there 2 Oct. 1731; see Foster Ind. Eccles.
Cannot account for cession date below 1748; does not seem to have been another of this name who was vicar between this Simon Adams and the next vicar (Wainwright)inst in 1748. 1748 is date of death given for this Simon Adams' father, Dr Simon Adams - could that be reason for error? Unlikely. Or was there delay between 1731 and 1748 in appointing a new vicar - also unlikely. All online genealogies of this family of Adams of Ansty agree on 1731 as date of death.
