Abstract
The Marvells were South Cambridgeshire farmers. They were living in Meldreth and Shepreth for 300 years before their first scholar was born. His school is not known, but he was christened Andrew at Shepreth on 12 April 1580 and he entered Emmanuel College, Cambridge in 1601. He stayed there the full seven years for his Master’s degree and then worked in the East Riding of Yorkshire for thirty-three years as a priest.
