Arthur Hamilton Baynes (23 March 1854 – 30 June 1942)[1] was a Church of England priest and Bishop of Natal and MaritzburgTemplate:Efn from 1893[2] to 1901.

Life

He was born in Lewisham, the eldest son of Joseph Ash Baynes and Mary Elizabeth Beard, of Blackheath, Kent. He matriculated in 1875 at Balliol College, Oxford and graduated B.A. at Oriel College in 1879, M.A. in 1882.[3]

Following ordination as deacon in 1881 and priest in 1882, Baynes was curate at St Mary's Church, Nottingham, from 1881 to 1884. He became vicar of St James's Church, Nottingham in 1884, remaining there to 1888.[3][4] He was Domestic Chaplain to the Archbishop of Canterbury, E. W. Benson, from 1888 to 1892.[5] In 1893[6] he was appointed to the bishopric of Natal. During the Boer War, while Bishop of Natal, he was an army chaplain.[7]

After returning to England from Natal, Baynes was vicar of St Mary's Church, Nottingham, and also an Assistant Bishop of Southwell and an honorary canon of Southwell Minster from 1905 until 1913. During the First World War he was again an army chaplain.[8] From 1913, he was incumbent of Birmingham Cathedral, first as vicar, then (from 1931) as Provost of Birmingham (and an Assistant Bishop of Birmingham throughout) until his retirement in 1937.
