non‐jurors were the high churchmen of the late 17th‐cent. Church of England, who refused the oath of allegiance to William and Mary in 1688. They held to the doctrine of the
divine right of kings and believed, therefore, that the Stuarts remained the legitimate monarchs. Eight bishops (including
Sancroft of Canterbury), 400 priests, and a few laymen refused the oath.
