William Framyngham
William Framyngham (1512–1537), was an English author. Life. Framyngham was born in February 1512 at Norwich, and educated at the grammar school, where he was a contemporary of Dr. John Caius. From Norwich he went to Cambridge University, and was at first at Pembroke Hall and afterwards at Queens' College, 'in aula Pembrokiana per adolescentiam educatus, per juventutem in Collegium reginale ascitus.' He proceeded B.A. 1530, M.A. 1533, and was fellow of Queens' College from 1530 till his death, and bursar for three years from 1534. He died 25 Sept. 1537, leaving all his books to his friend  and schoolfellow Dr. John Caius. Caius described his friend as "homo tenacissimæ memoriæ, fœcundi ingenii, infinitæ lectionis, indefatigati laboris atque diligentiæ". Works. John Caius tells us that along with Framyngham he wrote "Scholia" and notes upon them, but could never recover them from those in whose care he left them when he went to Italy. Long afterwards, in 1570, Edmund Gheast, bishop of Rochester, professed to know of them, but Caius apparently did not follow up the clue. Caius gives the following list of Framyngham's works:
