< Men of Kent and Kentishmen
William White,
MARTYR,
Was bom, according to Fuller, in Kent. He was a follower of Wicliffe, and the first married priest in England. After resigning his living he lived as a travelling preacher in the eastern counties. At last he was seized at Norwich, and charged with heresy, condemned and burnt in September, 1428.
