John Jegon (1550–1618) was an English academic and Bishop of Norwich. He supported uniformity of Anglican doctrine and worship and strong government. This led him into conflict with John Robinson later pastor to the Mayflower emigrants. On the other hand he made efforts to satisfy local Puritans by the appointment of preachers in his diocese. Nicholas Bownd dedicated to him a work on doctrine of Sabbath.
