  Alexander Nowell - LoveToKnow 1911   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
He was educated at Middleton, Lancashire, and at Brasenose College, Oxford, where he is said to have shared rooms with John Foxe the martyrologist.
Nowell is believed to have composed the Catechism inserted before the Order of Confirmation in the Prayer Book of 1549, which was supplemented in 1604 and is still in use; but the evidence is not conclusive.
See Ralph Churton, Life of Alexander Nowell (Oxford, 1809); G. Burnet, History of the Reformation (new ed., Oxford, 1865); and R. Dixon, History of the Church of England.

 Alexander Nowell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nowell was educated at Middleton, near Rochdale, Lancashire and at Brasenose College, Oxford, where he is said to have shared rooms with John Foxe the martyrologist.
Nowell was also deprived of his prebend, probably as being a married man, before May 1554, and sought refuge at Strasbourg and Frankfort, where he developed Puritan and almost Presbyterian views.
He submitted, however, to the Elizabethan settlement of religion, and was rewarded with the archdeaconry of Middlesex, a canonry at Canterbury and in 1560 with the deanery of St Paul's.

 LIFE AND DEFENCE OF JOHN FOXE
Nowell was already favorably disposed to the changes which were commencing; and it is generally supposed that he must have materially biassed the mind of Foxe to the conclusions which he afterwards adopted.
Nowell left the university in the year 1643, to teach protestantism; or the purer catholicism of antiquity, at Westminster.
Nowell and John Foxe were, possibly, a part of that assemblage of young men, of whom, in the year 1535, the king’s commissioners wrote to lord Cromwell — “ We have set Duns in Bocardo, and have utterly banished him Oxford for ever, with all his blind glosses.

 Literary Encyclopedia: Laurence Nowell
Nowell may have been a member of Queen Elizabeth’s first parliament of 1559: there was an MP with this name for Knaresborough in Yorkshire, but it is not clear that this is the same person.
Nowell is best known as the first compiler of an Old English dictionary, the Vocabularium Saxonicum, which he produced chiefly from the Anglo-Saxon laws, Ælfric’s “Grammar” and “Glossary”, and by comparing the Latin and Old English versions of Bede’s Historia ecclesiastica and Orosius’s Historiae adversus paganos.
Nowell probably also worked with John Joscelyn and Matthew Parker who were themselves early scholars of Old English; certainly Nowell’s Vocabularium was used by Joscelyn and Matthew Parker’s son John for their own dictionary of Old English.

His descent from Alexander Hales, the doctor irrefragabilis and famous teacher of Thomas Aquinas, is only a pious, unfounded conjecture thrown out by his panegyrist, Jacob Thomasius, of Leipzig.

 [EMLS 3.3 (January, 1998): 9.1-14] Review of The Christian's ABC: Catechisms and Catechizing in England c. 1530-1740
Recommended here are such accessible catechisms as the church catechism printed in the Book of Common Prayer (see, for instance, John E. Booty's modern edition of the 1559 BCP, pp.
282-287) and the advanced catechism of Alexander Nowell, translated into English by Thomas Norton in 1570, and later edited for the Parker Society (1853; republished by Johnson Reprints, 1968).
By focusing on the books and practices that contributed to this transformation, The Christian's ABC gives us special insight to both the culture of early modern England and a primary method with which that culture produced the more sufficient individual we recognize as quintessentially modern.

He was the youngest Son of Dr John Hammond Physician to Prince Henry, and from that great favourer of meriting servants and their relations, had the honour at the Font to receive his Christian Name.
Nor had he an hereditary interest in Learning onely from his Father; by his Mothers side he was allied both unto it and the Profession of Theologie, being descended from Dr Alexander Nowell, the Reverend Dean of St Paul's, that great and happy Instrument of the Reformation, and eminent Light of the English Church.
His skill in Greek was particularly advantag'd by the conversation and kindness of Mr Allen, one of the Fellows of the College, excellently seen in that Language, and a great assistant of Sr Henry Savile in his magnificent edition of St Chrysostome.
