Wake, William
Wake, William (1657–1737), Abp. of Canterbury from 1716. From 1717 to 1720 he engaged in negotiations with Gallican leaders, notably L. E. Dupin, on a plan for reunion between the C of E and the French Church. Wake sympathized with Non-conformists and advocated changes in the BCP to meet their difficulties.
