Other note
John Chetwode (Chetwood) matriculated pensioner from Trinity College, Dublin in 1670 and was made Scholar that same year. He graduated B.A. in 1674 and proceeded M.A. in 1677. According to a will enrolled under this name in 1703, he appears to have been the rector of Ardbraccan, co. Meath, and was the founder of a charity for the apprenticeship of Protestant boys in Meath that was patronized by John Stearne, bishop of Clogher.
