John Francis Wade
John Francis Wade was an English hymnist who is usually credited with writing and composing the hymn "Adeste Fideles". The authorship is disputed, with 13th-century cardinal St. Bonaventure and King John IV of Portugal being proposed as alternative composers, although the earliest known manuscripts of the hymn discovered from 1946 all bear Wade's signature. Others argue for John Reading or anonymous Cistercian monks. Wade fled to France after the Jacobite rising of 1745 was crushed. As a Catholic layman, he lived with exiled English Catholics in France, where he taught music and worked on church music for private use. From Wikipedia (
