Template:Use dmy dates Basil Staunton Batty OBE (called Staunton;Template:Efn 12 May 1873Template:Snd19 March 1952) was an Anglican suffragan bishop in the 20th century.[1]
Batty was born into an ecclesiastical family on 12 May 1873: his father, William Edmund Batty, was Vicar of St John's, Walham Green.[2] After education at St Paul's and Selwyn College, Cambridge,[2] Batty began his ordained ministry[3] as a curate at St Clement's, York.[4] He was made deacon at Michaelmas 1896 (27 September)[5] and ordained priest in Advent 1897 — both times by William Maclagan, Archbishop of York, at York Minister.[6]
Following this he was Vicar of Medmenham, then Rector of South Hackney. Further incumbencies followed at St Gabriel's, Warwick Square,[7] and Christ Church, Mayfair.[8] He was also Rector of St Anne and St Agnes, Gresham Street.[1] In 1926 he was ordained to the episcopate as the first Bishop of Fulham,[9] a post he was to hold until 1947. A noted Europhile,[10] he died on 19 March 1952.[11]
