Gonville Hall was his third foundation. Before this he had founded two religious houses, a College at Rushford, Norfolk, 1342 (suppressed in 1541) and the Hospital of St John at Lynn, Norfolk.[1] The origin of his wealth is obscure. His father was William Gonville, a Frenchman domiciled in England, who owned the Manor of Lerling and other property in Norfolk. William's eldest son was Sir Nicholas Gonville who married an heiress of the Lerling family.[2] Gonville worked for King Edward III of England, including lending him money. In return he was rewarded with appointment as King's clerk (a title later known as Secretary of State).[3] After Gonville, supported by Sir Walter Manny, petitioned Edward III for permission to set up a college for 20 scholars at the University of Cambridge, permission was granted and Edward III issued Letters patent in January 1348.[3] Offices held{{s-start}}{{s-rel}}{{s-bef|before=unknown}}{{s-ttl|title=Rector of Thelnetham, Suffolk|years=1320-1326}}{{s-aft|after=unknown}}{{s-bef|before=unknown}}{{s-ttl|title=Rector of Rushford, Norfolk|years=1326-1342}}{{s-aft|after=unknown}}{{s-bef|before=unknown}}{{s-ttl|title=Rector of Terrington St. Clement, Norfolk |years=1342-1351}}{{s-aft|after=unknown}}{{end}}References
