James Inskip

James Theodore Inskip (6 April 1868 – 4 August 1949) was Bishop of Barking from 1919 to 1948.[1]

Inskip was the son James Inskip, a Bristol solicitor, by his first wife Elizabeth, daughter of Edward Thomas Inskip.[2] Lord Chancellor Thomas Inskip, 1st Viscount Caldecote and Sir John Inskip, Lord Mayor of Bristol, were his younger half-brothers. Inskip's mother died when he was one year old. He was educated at Clifton College and Corpus Christi College, Cambridge.[3][4] Ordained in 1892,[5] his first post was as a Curate at St James’, Hatcham. He was then successively a Lecturer in Pastoral Theology at King's College London, Vicar of Jesmond and finally (before his elevation to the Episcopate) Vicar of Christ Church, Southport.
