William Law (1686 – 9 April 1761) was a Church of England priest who lost his position at Emmanuel College Cambridge when his conscience would not allow him to take the required oath of allegiance to the first Hanoverian monarch George I. Law had previously given his allegiance to the House of Stuart and is sometimes considered a second-generation non-juror (an earlier generation of non-jurors included Thomas Ken).
