History
William Charles White, born in 1873, was an Anglican Bishop, author and archaeologist. He was the first Anglican Bishop from Canada to be stationed in Honan province, China, between 1901 and 1934. He was also the first Canadian Bishop to be consecrated for service in the mission field. He died in 1960.
