<p><em>Born:</em> March 18, 1775, Matlock, Derbyshire, England.</p>
<p><em>Died:</em> November 7, 1852.</p>
<p class=just>Born to poor parents, Cawood had little formal education as a child, but at age 18 he was engaged in the service of Rev. Mr. Cursham, Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire. After three years of study under Cursham&#8217;s direction, Cawood entered St. Edmund Hall at Oxford, in 1797. He graduated in 1801, took Holy Orders, and became successively Curate of Ribsford and Dowles, and Incumbent of St. Ann&#8217;s Chapel of Ease, Bewdley, Worcestershire. Nine of his 17 hymns were included in Cotterill&#8217;s <em>Selection</em>, 8th edition, 1819. Three others appeared in <em>Lyra Britannica, 1867</em>.</p>
