Hancorn was ordained as a deacon on 24 August 1752 by John Thomas, Bishop of Lincoln, and as a priest on 10 June 1753 by Joseph Wilcocks, Bishop of Rochester.[2]
He began his clerical career as a curate at the Parish Church of Bicker, Lincolnshire from 25 September 1752 and the Parish Church of Allhallows, Kent from 12 June 1754. Hancorn was the vicar of Stoke from 11 June 1753 to 22 October 1765.[2]
In 1765, Hancorn inherited the estates of his kinsman, Baldwin Duppa, with an injunction for him to take the name and arms of Duppa, for which an act was passed by George III.[3] Thereafter, he quit the clerical prossession and took the title of esquire.[4]
Deathedit
Hancorn died in 1789 without issue. Upon his death, his estates were bequeathed to his brother Baldwin Hancorn, who took the name of Duppa, as did his male heirs.[5]
