Thomas Cartwright, English Puritan, was born in 1535 and died on December 27, 1603. He is considered by many to the "father of English Presbyterianism." He sought reforms in church and state, and had a hand in the Millenary Petition of 1603, the Lambeth Articles and other such contributions to the early Puritan movement. He also taught William Ames and others who strived for reformation in the King James era and beyond.
