Geoffrey Anketell Studdert Kennedy, MC (27 June 1883 – 8 March 1929), was an Anglican priest and poet. He was nicknamed 'Woodbine Willie' during World War I for giving Woodbine cigarettes along with spiritual aid to injured and dying soldiers. ==Early life== Born in Leeds in 1883, Studdert Kennedy was the seventh of nine children born to Jeanette Anketell and William Studdert Kennedy, vicar of St Mary's, Quarry Hill in Leeds. His father William Studdert Kennedy was born in Blackrock, County Dublin, Ireland in 1826. Geoffrey's paternal grandfather was Dean of Clonfert in County Galway Ireland from 1850 until his death in 1864. Because of his Irish forefathers, Geoffrey always maintained he was an Irishman.〔( Bunbury, Turtle ), ''The Glorious Madness, Tales of The Irish and The Great War'', Woodbine Wilie -- The Soldiers' Poet, p.85, Gill & Macmillan, Dublin 12 (2014) ISBN 978 0717 16234 5〕 He was educated at Leeds Grammar School and Trinity College, Dublin, where he gained a degree in classics and divinity in 1904.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url =http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/FWWstuddert.htm )〕 After a year's training at Ripon Clergy College, he became a curate in Rugby and then, in 1914, the vicar of St. Paul's, Worcester.〔
