Information about who translated the King James Version is not always easy to turn up. This is intended to provide some help in that direction. There is much about this topic (& related issues) here. This is an article that was published in the 1800s, and is a good starting place. The original King James Bible did contain the Apocrypha, which those translators specifically stated (even though they translated it) that the Apocrypha was NOT scripture. This was stated even by Jerome in his Latin Preface to his Latin Vulgate (which is no longer published even when the Latin Vulgate is published. But even the Vulgate has been replaced by the Greek collated text of Westcott and Hort). The Refutations by professor John Burgon [Revision Revised] have yet to be addressed within Roman Catholicism. The issues of the printing of the Apocrypha has been somewhat addressed by Evangelicals in the following works: Review of the conduct of the directors of the British and Foreign Bible Society relative to the Apocrypha and to their administration which can be found at: http://www.archive.org/details/reviewofconducto00haldrich and A Plea for the [Inspiration and] Canon of Scripture which can be found at: http://www.archive.org/details/APleaForTheinspirationAndCanonOfScriptureBibleByTheBible or in such works as Which Version by Mauro, or Codex B and its allies. They are available online. Other material on the topic can be found under the search " apocrypha bible society".
