George Maclear
George Frederick Maclear (b.3 Feb 1833 in Bedford; d. 19 Oct 1902 at St Augustine's College, Canterbury) was an English clergyman, theological writer and headmaster at King's College School, London (later Wimbledon). He was the eldest son of the Rev. George Maclear, MA, chaplain of Bedford county prison (1832–69), by his wife Isabella Ingle.〔(George Frederick Maclear (I142) ), Webtrees〕 Educated at Bedford School, he obtained a scholarship at Trinity College, Cambridge in 1852, receiving a BA degree in 1855, followed by a distinguished academic career. He was the nephew of Thomas Maclear, Her Majesty's Astronomer at Cape Town, and cousin to John Maclear, Admiral in the Royal Navy, and Basil Maclear.〔
==Career==
Maclear won the Carus Greek Testament prize in 1854 and 1855, and after graduating BA with a second class in the classical tripos of 1855, he was placed in the first class in the theological tripos of 1856 (its first year).〔 He gained the Burney prize in 1856, the Hulsean in 1857, the Maitland in 1858 and 1861, and the Norrisian in 1863. All five prize essays were published. His Maitland essay of 1858, ''The Christian Statesman and our Indian Empire; or the legitimate sphere of government countenance and aid in promoting Christianity in India,'' reached a second edition. The Maitland essay of 1861, on ''Christian Missions during the Middle Ages,'' was recast as ''Apostles of Medieval Europe'' (1869), and was the first of a series of volumes on missionary history. Maclear proceeded MA in 1860, BD in 1867, and DD in 1872.〔 Ordained deacon in 1856 and priest in 1857,〔 he held curacies at Clopton, Bedfordshire (1856-8), and St. Barnabas, Kennington (1858–60); was assistant-preacher at Curzon Chapel, Mayfair (1860-5); and reader at the Temple (1865–70); select preacher at Cambridge in 1868, 1880, and 1886, and at Oxford in 1881-2; and Ramsden preacher at Cambridge in 1890.〔 He delivered the Boyle lectures at Whitehall in 1879-80, ''The Evidential Value of the Holy Eucharist'' (1883; 4th edit. 1898).
Meanwhile Maclear was an assistant master at King's College School, London (1860-6), and headmaster (1867-80). He doubled the numbers and greatly raised the standing of the school.〔 While headmaster he declined an offer of the see of Colombo in 1875. Eventually he accepted the post of warden of St. Augustine's Missionary College, Canterbury, in 1880, and held it til his death. In this capacity he worked as preacher, lecturer, and adviser on foreign mission work.〔 In 1885 he was made an hon. Canon of Canterbury Cathedral. He died at St. Augustine's College, after a long illness, on 19 Oct. 1902, and was buried in St Martin's churchyard, Canterbury.
