Epithet: Fellow of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge
Robert Masters (1713-1798), historian, entered Corpus Christi College, Cambridge in 1731. He was ordained priest at Ely in September 1738, the same year that he was elected into a fellowship of his college. He remained there for twenty years, filling at times the offices of dean, bursar, and tutor. He became a rural parish priest in Corpus livings at Landbeach from 1756 to 1797 and Waterbeach from 1759 to 1784. Masters's book, a History of the College of Corpus Christi (in two parts, 1753-5), was the first published account of its kind of any college at Oxford or Cambridge. His second major historical was an edition of twenty-five copies of A Short Account of the Parish of Waterbeach (1795), the first separate Cambridgeshire parish history.
