scb_admin_history Born at Alconbury, Huntingdon [Cambridgeshire] in 1807. His first ministerial appointment was to Sierra Leone in 1835. He survived the difficult working conditions for two years before being sent home due to worsening ill health (in the first two months of his tenure three colleagues died). The remainder of his career was spent in home circuits principally in the Home Counties and South-West of England. He became a supernumerary whilst at South Petherton, Somerset, in 1872 and died at Exeter, Devon, on 10 March 1882.
