      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.

      Bishop William Charles White (1873-1960) was a missionary in Fukien, China, 1897-1909 and Bishop of the Canadian missionary Diocese of Honan, China, 1909-1934. He returned to Toronto as Professor of Chinese Studies and as Keeper of the East Asiatic Collection at the Royal Ontario Museum, a collection enhanced by his connections. He was also a biographer of the Rev. Canon H.J. Cody.
