an English Baptist minister, was born at Stansfield, Yorkshire, in 1810. For some years he was a student at Oxford University, and afterwards in the academy of the celebrated Rev. Daniel Taylor, in London. He was baptized November 20, 1829; ordained deacon of a Baptist Church, December 26, 1832; licensed to preach, April 5, 1833; gave up his secular business in 1835, and pursued a course of theological study at Wisbeach; was ordained April 2, 1839, in Bradford, and remained pastor of the Tetley Street Church till November 1847, when he removed to Louth. His next pastorate was in Halifax, from 1854 to 1862. After two or three brief pastorates in other places, he returned to Bradford and became pastor of the Infirmary Street Church. His death took place June 1, 1873. He published, in 1865, his Hand-book on Christian Baptism, and in 1871 his Christian Baptism, its Subjects and Modes. He also published his Appeal to Friends, on the subject of baptism. At the time of his death he had completed an extended work on the Church Establishment. Dr. Ingham filled a high place among the scholars and preachers of that branch of English Baptists with which he was identified, the "General Baptists," corresponding in most respects with the Freewill Baptists of the United States. See (Lond.) Baptist Hand-book, 1874, page 277. (J.C.S.)
