Third Bishop of Algoma; Second Metropolitan of Ontario (and Archbishop of Algoma).

George Thorneloe was born in Coventry, England in 1848, and was educated in Birkenhead, England, and Granby, Quebec. He attended the University of Bishop's College, Lennoxville, Quebec, obtaining a B.A. in 1872. He was ordained deacon in 1874, and priest a year later. He was incumbent of Stanstead, Quebec from 1874 to 1885, and obtained an M.A. from the University of Bishop's College in 1877. He then became rector of Sherbrooke, Quebec, from 1885 to 1896. During this time, he was made a canon of Cathedral Church of the Holy Trinity in Quebec, until 1896. From 1895 to 1896, he was clerical secretary of the Synod of the Ecclesiastical Province of Canada. He was consecrated Bishop of Algoma in 1897, and married in 1898. He was an excellent governor of his diocese, travelling throughout to perform his duties to his people. His reputation was such that he was, in fact, nominated or even elected to multiple dioceses over the years, including Ontario, Ottawa, Toronto, and Nova Scotia (the latter two of which he was not elected). He declined both the Ontario and Ottawa elections, thought Ottawa caused some discomfort, as the synod refused to accept his decision and pressured him to accept. The House of Bishops, however, aided him in not allowing him to resign the See of Algoma, making it impossible for him to accept the See of Ottawa. He was eventually elected President of the House of Bishops of the Ecclesiastical Province of Ontario in 1915, the same year he became the Metropolitan of Ontario and Archbishop of Algoma. He resigned in 1926, and passed away in 1935 in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario.

Second Bishop of Nova Scotia.

Robert Stanser was born in Harthill, England in 1760, and received an LL.B from Cambridge University in 1788. He was ordained deacon in 1783, then priest in 1784, and was curate of Bulwell, England from 1783 to 1787. In 1787, he worked for the Society for the Propogation of the Gospel in England and Wales, then in 1791, was appointed rector of St. Paul's in Halifax, Nova Scotia, a position he held for 25 years. During this time, he also served as Chaplain to the House of Assembly in Halifax, the Legislative Council, the Naval Hospital, and the H.M.S. Leander. He was popular among both Anglicans and Non-Anglicans, and was therefore the most popular choice for Bishop when Charles Inglis passed away. He was consecrated Bishop of Nova Scotia in 1816, but spent most of his episcopate in England due to ill health. He resigned the See in 1924, and died in Hampton, England in 1928.

Sixth Bishop of Quebec.

Lennox Waldron Williams was born in Lennoxville, Quebec in 1859, and educated there and in England. He obtained a B.A. from Oxford University in 1884, and was ordained deacon in 1885. He served as curate of St. Matthew's Church, Quebec from 1885 to 1887, and was ordained priest in 1886. He received an M.A. from Oxford in 1887. He also became rector of St. Matthew's Church that year, and remained until 1899, when he became rector of the Cathedral Church of the Holy Trinity, as well as Dean of Quebec. Though he was elected Coadjutor Bishop of Ontario in 1900, he declined the election, and in 1915, was elected as Bishop of Quebec. He received an honourary D.D. from Oxford in 1920. He resigned from the See of Quebec in 1935, and passed away in 1958.
