William Andrews [1]

Andrews, William (2),

a missionary of the Church of England and a native of Ireland, after having. been for some time in America, went to England in 1770; was ordained by the bishop of London, and appointed to Schenectady, N. Y., by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. In 1771 he opened a grammar-school, but ill-health led him in 1773 to migrate to Virginia, and he resided for some time in Williamsburg. The mission of Johnstown having become vacant, he applied for it. See Sprague Annals of the Amer. Pulpit. 5. 91.
