Thomas Watson (1620 – 1686) was an English Puritan preacher and author. He did his studies at Emmanuel College, Cambridge and in 1646 he was assigned to pastor a church in London where he was known for his strong Presbyterian views.
In 1651 he was imprisoned for his involvement in the recall of Charles II of England and then released in 1652. He was famous
for his preaching in London, but eventually removed during the Nonconformity movement. Still he continued to preach privately. And in 1672 with the Declaration of Indulgence he was allowed to preach again in London at Crosby House.
When his health began to fail he retired to Essex, England where he died in 1686.
