Hugh Jermyn
Hugh Willoughby Jermyn (1820–1903) was an Anglican bishop in the second half of the 19th century[1] and the very start of the 20th.
He was born in Swaffham, and educated at Westminster and Trinity Hall, Cambridge.[2] Ordained in 1845,[3] his career began as a Curate at Kensington Parish Church after which he was incumbent of St John’s, Forres.[4] Following this he was Dean of Moray & Ross [5] then Archdeacon of Basseterre. He returned to Britain in 1858 to be Rural Dean of Dunster before being appointed Vicar of Barking. In 1871 he was elevated to the Episcopate as the 3rd Bishop of Colombo and in 1875 translated to Brechin.[6] Eleven years later he became Primus of Scotland,[7] a post he held until 1901. He died on 17 September 1903.[8]
Archive Services at the University of Dundee hold papers relating to Jermyn's election as Bishop of Brechin.[9]
