Thomas Masters

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Reverend Thomas Heywood Masters, CBE (9 April 1865 – 1 September 1939) was an Anglican priest.[1][2][3]

Masters was born in 1865,[4] and educated at Withington High School, at Inverness College, in Hanover and at Christ's College, Cambridge.[5] Ordained in 1889, his first posts were curacies at St Peter's, Caverswall and St Mark's, Lakenham. He then held incumbencies at All Saints, North Scarle[6] and from 1901[7] at All Saints, East Meon.

During the Great War, he was a Red Cross Ambulance driver serving in France before his appointment as a Temporary Chaplain to the Forces. Although 50 and married with 4 children, he was 'accepted for France going out in 13 days time with his teeth attended to'. He could ride and speak French and German.[8] By the end of the War, although he had served for only three years, he had been promoted to Assistant Chaplain-General and was twice Mentioned in Despatches. He was also appointed a CBE.[9] When peace returned he became Vicar of St Peter's, Petersfield.[10] After this he was Rural Dean of Portsmouth then Provost of Portsmouth Cathedral,[11] also becoming an Honorary Chaplain to the King.[12]

Masters died on 1 September 1939[13] and there is a memorial to him at East Meon.[14]
