Comments John Geddes was a cousin of Alexander Geddes (q.v.) and coadjutor Bishop to the Vicar Apostolic of the Lowland District of Scotland. James Robertson was a Benedictine friar. Their controversial changes to the text were not well accepted and did not have a lasting influence, although the Gospels and Acts from this edition were used in the 1812 "Newcastle" New Testament (infra).

Comments For an unknown reason, the Geddes-Robertson emendations cease in Romans and the standard Challoner text continues. This edition is sometimes identified with Father Robert Worswick, a Newcastle priest who was apparently responsible for having it printed.
