William Andrewes Fearon (4 February 1841 – 29 April 1924)[1] was an Anglican priest.
He was born in Assington, Suffolk, into an ecclesiastical family, the son of Rev. Daniel Rose Fearon, and Francis Jane Andrewes, daughter of Rev.

He had a tutor’s house at his old school from 1867 to 1882, during which time he married Mary Freeman, the daughter of an Archdeacon of Exeter[7] when he became Headmaster of Durham School. He was Examining Chaplain to the Bishop of Newcastle from 1882 to 1884 when he returned to Winchester, where he was Headmaster until 1901. He was Archdeacon of Winchester from 1903 to 1920, Examining Chaplain to the Bishop of Winchester from 1903 to 1915; and Canon of Winchester from 1906 until 1920.[8]
