Other NoteStephen Egerton was the fifth son of Thomas Egerton, mercer, of London. He took his B. A. degree from Peterhouse College, Cambridge in 1576, and proceeded M. A. in 1579. He was a Fellow from 1579 until 1585, during which time was ordained at Peterborough. He seems to have settled in the London liberty of St Ann Blackfriars in late 1583 or early 1584. In 1594, Egerton published a translation from the French of Matthew Virel, A Learned and Excellent Treatise, a hugely popular work which went into its fourteenth edition by 1635. He also published A Brief Method of Catechizing (1594), which reached a forty-fourth edition by 1644. Egerton was buried at St Ann's, Blackfriars, on 7 May 1622.
