Simeon's Trustees
Simeon's Trustees is a patronage trust established in 1836 by Charles Simeon (1759-1836; ODNB), one of the early evangelical leaders in the Church of England. From 1800, Simeon used his wealth and connections to acquire advowsons in order to strengthen evangelicalism within the Church; this formed the basis of the trust. See also Volume 67.
