Biographies

STACKHOUSE, ALFRED (1811-1876), Church of England clergyman, was born on 24 July 1811 at Camberwell Grove, London, the son of John Stackhouse (1776-1849), of Surrey, and his wife Frances Mary (1780-1849), the elder daughter of Thomas Rashleigh of Blackheath. After preliminary schooling he went to Lincoln College, Oxford (B.A., 1834; M.A, 1837). He was made deacon in June 1835 and after ordination to the priesthood in March 1838 was appointed a chaplain to the East India Co. in the presidency of Bombay. After various short appointments in India he was given two years leave in March 1840 to recover his health in Van Diemen's Land. As Rev. Robert Davies was in England Stackhouse took his place at Longford and Perth. When Davies returned in July 1841 Perth petitioned Lieutenant-Governor Sir John Franklin to make Perth and Breadalbane a separate parish with Stackhouse as incumbent. Franklin was so slow in deciding that Stackhouse left for India in February 1842, but when Franklin's approval did reach him he resigned his post and returned to Van Diemen's Land.
