British Calvinists: Thomas Gataker (1574-1654)

Thomas Gataker (1574-1654) was born in London and graduated from St John's College, Cambridge in 1590. He was preacher to the society of Lincoln's Inn from 1601-1611. 

He was a member of the Westminster assembly, though ill health meant that he had to withdraw in 1645. He was in favour of the episcopacy.
