===================================
Willias, Rev. Theodore Chickering. (Brookline, Massachusetts, July 2, 1855--May 6, 1915, Boston, Mass.). He graduated from Harvard College in 1876, and from the Harvard Divinity School in 1882. He was ordained minister of the Unitarian Church in Winchester, Mass., in 1882, but became minister of All Souls' Church, New York, in 1883. He resigned in 1896, and spent two years in Europe. After his return he served as headmaster of Hackley School, Tarrytown, New York, 1899-1905. A classical scholar, and gifted as a poet, he published a fine metrical translation of Virgil's Aeneid, wrote a number of hymns which are religious poetry of a high order, and assisted his wife, Velma C. Williams, in compiling her Hymnal: Amore Dei, 1890, revised edition 1897.

Anonymous
Composer of "S. GREGORY" in Children's Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
