John Huntingdon

John Huntingdon (fl. 16th. century) was an English Protestant preacher. He was a client of Mary Fitzroy, and "one of London's most popular and most effective preachers."

Initially Huntingdon was a religious conservative, writing a pamphlet under the pseudonym "Ponce Pantolabus" against evangelicals. The Genealogy of Heresy (modern spelling), it was in verse, published c. 1542; and is not now extant. There was a reply by John Bale, in 1545. Huntingdon was one of those who stood witness against the Scottish reformer Alexander Seton. The Privy Council had him arrested in 1553.

Under Elizabeth I, Huntingdon became a canon of Exeter Cathedral. He had the backing of English supporters of the Genevan reforms. By now known as a radical, he was one of those for whom Richard Martin stood surety.
