"CHARLES VOYSEY (1828-1912), English theistic preacher, was born in London March 18 1828. Educated at Stockwell grammar school and St. Edmund Hall, Oxford, he was ordained in the Church of England and held various curacies up to 1860, when he became curate of St. Mark's, Whitechapel. Thence he was ejected for heterodox doctrine, and went to St. Mark's, Victoria Docks, and later to Healaugh, near Tadcaster, where he was first curate and then vicar. But in 1869 he was summoned before the chancery court of the diocese of York for heterodox teaching, and deprived of his living. He appealed to the privy council, but the decision was upheld. He then established a theistic church in London, where he continued to preach and teach up to the time of his death. He died at Hampstead July 20 1912.
