Venning, Ralph

Venning, Ralph a Nonconformist divine, was born about 1620, and educated in Emmanuel College, Cambridge. He does not seem to have had any preferment in the Church, except the lectureship of St. Olave's, Southwark, from which he was ejected for Nonconformity. Much of his time was given to literary pursuits. He died March 10, 1673.
