William Smyth
William Smyth (or Smith) (c. 1460 – 2 January 1514) was Bishop of Coventry and Lichfield from 1493 to 1496 and then Bishop of Lincoln until his death. He held political offices, the most important being Lord President of the Council of Wales and the Marches. He became very wealthy and was a benefactor of a number of institutions. He was a co-founder of Brasenose College, Oxford and endowed a grammar school in the village of his birth in Lancashire.
==Early life and education==
Smyth was born in the south Lancashire village of Farnworth in the parish of Prescot, the fourth son of Robert Smyth of Peel Hall.〔Poole, p21〕〔Fishwick, Henry; Ditchfield, P. H. (Peter Hampson) (1909). ''Memorials of Old Lancashire'' (1909). v2:p. 262〕 He was allegedly brought up during his youth〔Wise, Charles (1891). ''Rockingham Castle and the Watsons'', p. 191.〕 at nearby Knowsley Hall, the home of Thomas Stanley, 1st Earl of Derby. At this time Stanley was married to his second wife Lady Margaret, Countess of Richmond.〔Poole, p. 22〕 Lady Margaret was the mother of the future Henry VII by her previous marriage to Edmund Tudor, 1st Earl of Richmond〔(E.M.G. Routh, (1924) ''Lady Margaret: A Memoir of Lady Margaret Beaufort, Countess of Richmond & Derby, Mother of Henry VII'', London: Oxford University Press ) e-text〕 and she was to have an important influence in Smyth's life.〔Margaret Bowler, 'Smith, William (d. 1514)', ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, September 2004; online edn, May 2007 (), accessed 27 August 2007.〕
Smyth went to the University of Oxford. His college is uncertain, being either Oriel or Lincoln, or both in succession. In 1476 he gained the degree of bachelor of canon law and by 1492 he had received the degree of bachelor of civil law.〔
