John Huntingdon (preacher)

John Huntingdon (fl. 16th. century) was an English Protestant preacher. He was a client of Mary Fitzroy, and "one of London's most popular and most effective preachers."^[1]

Initially Huntingdon was a religious conservative, writing a pamphlet under the pseudonym "Ponce Pantolabus" against evangelicals.^[2] The Genealogy of Heresy (modern spelling), it was in verse, published c. 1542; and is not now extant.^[3]^[4] There was a reply by John Bale, in 1545.^[5] Huntingdon was one of those who stood witness against the Scottish reformer Alexander Seton.^[4]

Not long after his pamphlet, Huntingdon became a reformer.^[6] The Privy Council had him arrested in 1553.^[7]

Under Elizabeth I, Huntingdon became a canon of Exeter Cathedral.^[8] He had the backing of English supporters of the Genevan reforms.^[9] By now known as a radical, he was one of those for whom Richard Martin stood surety.^[10]
