William Forrest fl. 1581 was an English Catholic priest and poet. Life Forrest is stated by Anthony Wood to have been a relative of John Forest, the Franciscan friar. He received his education at Christ Church, Oxford , and he was present at the discussions held at Oxford University Oxford in 1530, when Henry VIII desired to procure the judgment of the university in the matter of his divorce he appears to have attended the funeral of Queen Catherine of Aragon at Peterborough in 1536.
