Winchester was a student of canon law from 1418, graduating with a bachelorate in 1421.[1] He appears to have entered Scotland in 1424 after King James I of Scotland returned from his eighteen-year period as a hostage in England; it is notable and certainly relevant that James' queen, Joan Beaufort, was the niece of Henry Beaufort, Bishop of Winchester.[2] After entering Scotland, James was chaplain and secretary to the king, who bestowed on Winchester Alyth in Angus and helped him become Chancellor of Dunkeld.[3] Winchester was out of Scotland in 1432, attending the Council of Basel on behalf of King James; he was also Clerk of the Register in this year.[2] He was Dean of Aberdeen in 1431,[4] and was provided as Treasurer of the diocese of Glasgow sometime in 1431, but was not able to take up this position.[5] However, he did become Provost of the Collegiate Church of Lincluden between 1434 and 1436.[6] Winchester's services to the king were rewarded further in November 1435 when, after the death of Columba de Dunbar, he was elected as Bishop of Moray.[7] He was not, however, consecrated until 9 May 1437, a few months after the death of King James; his consecration took place at Cambuskenneth Abbey.[8] After becoming bishop, Winchester continued in the service of Queen Joan through the minority of James II of Scotland. James II later rewarded WInchester by creating Spynie as a burgh of Barony on 24 July 1451; after James II murdered the ex-regent William Douglas, 8th Earl of Douglas in 1452, Spynie's status was raised to that of burgh of regality.[9] Bishop Winchester died April, 1460, probably at Spynie Castle[10] and was buried in St Mary's Aisle within Elgin Cathedral.[11] Notes1. ^McGladdery, "Winchester, John (died 1460)"; Dowden says civil law (decrees), Dowden, Bishops of Scotland, p. 159. 2. ^1 McGladdery, "Winchester, John (d. 1460)". 3. ^McGladdery, "Winchester, John (d. 1460)"; Watt, Fasti Ecclesiae, p. 111. 4. ^Watt, Fasti Ecclesiae, p. 8. 5. ^Watt, Fasti Ecclesiae, p. 165. 6. ^Watt, Fasti Ecclesiae, p. 364. 7. ^Watt, Fasti Ecclesiae, p. 215. 8. ^Dowden, Bishops of Scotland, pp. 160-1; McGladdery, "Winchester, John (d. 1460)"; Watt, Fasti Ecclesiae, p. 215. 9. ^Dowden, Bishops of Scotland, p. 160; McGladdery, "Winchester, John (d. 1460)". 10. ^McGladdery gives 1 April; Watt gives 22 April; the conflicting sources are discussed by Dowden: see Dowden, Bishops of Scotland, p. 160, McGladdery, "Winchester, John (d. 1460)", and Watt, Fasti Ecclesiae, pp. 215-6. 11. ^Young, Robert: Annals of the Parish and Burgh of Elgin, Elgin, 1879, p. 428 References
