According to Wikipedia, Shakespeare's marriage to Anne Hathaway in 1582 may have been officiated by John Frith, who in 1586 was accused of being a Catholic priest maintaining the façade of Protestantism. Some surmise Shakespeare married in the city of Temple Grafton, not Stratford, for his wedding to be performed as a Catholic sacrament and that it may have been rushed because Anne was three months pregnant. According to wordgenius.com, Shakespeare created new words, such as "swagger" and "bandit", when no existing terms would suffice.
