From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Philip Jacob (28 October 1803[1] – 20 December 1884[2]) was Archdeacon of Winchester from 1860.[3]

Jacob was the son of John Jacob of Roath Court, Glamorgan. He was educated at Corpus Christi College, Oxford, matriculating in 1821 and graduating B.A. in 1825, M.A. in 1828.[4] He was made deacon in 1827 and ordained priest in 1828, both times by the Bishop of Llandaff.[5] In 1831 he became Rector of Crawley, Hampshire; and in 1834 a Canon of Winchester.[6]

His son was Edgar Jacob (1844–1920), who was bishop of Exeter, then Bishop of St Albans.
