Wikipedia
John Wakeman (died 1549) was the last Abbot of Tewkesbury and first Bishop of Gloucester, both in the English county of Gloucestershire.

Wakeman was one of Henry VIII's chaplains who became Abbot of Tewkesbury. He was a very learned man and revised the translation of the Book of Revelation in Cranmer's Bible. After the Dissolution of the Monasteries, he was appointed the first Bishop of Gloucester. He died in 1549 and was buried at Gloucester Cathedral, though he also has a fine cadaver tomb cenotaph in Tewkesbury Abbey.
