== Life ==
Henry Wilberforce was born in 1807, the youngest son of William Wilberforce and his wife, Barbara Ann Spooner. He studied classics and mathematics at Oriel College, Oxford, where he was elected president of the Oxford Union.〔Josef L. Altholz, “Wilberforce, Henry William (1807–1873),” in ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', ed. H. C. G. Matthew and Brian Harrison. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2004.

During his time in Oxford he had received tuition from John Henry Newman, through whose influence he not only became attached to the Tractarian movement, but abandoned his plan to study for the bar, and instead took orders as an Anglican clergyman.
Wilberforce served the Anglican church from 1834 (also the year of his marriage) until 1850, first as curate of Bransgrove, Hampshire (1834), then as vicar of Walmer (1841), and finally as vicar of East Farleigh, Kent (1843). In 1850 he followed his wife, Mary Sargent, daughter of John Sargent, into the Catholic Church.
Upon his conversion, he wrote ''Reasons for Submitting to the Catholic Church: a Farewell Letter to his Parishioners'' (1851). The Catholic Defence Association was founded in Ireland the same year, and in 1852 Wilberforce became Secretary, living in Ireland for two or three years. As Secretary of the Catholic Defence Association he engaged in a correspondence on Church of Ireland proselytizing which was published as ''Proselytism in Ireland: the Catholic Defence Association versus the Irish Church Missions on the charge of bribery and intimidation; a correspondence between the Rev. Alex Dallas and the Rev. Henry Wilberforce'' (1852). In 1854 he became owner and editor of the ''Catholic Standard'', changing the name to the ''Weekly Register'' the following year. In 1864, finding the pace of weekly editorial responsibility too demanding, he sold the ''Weekly Register'' and embarked on a more leisurely production of articles and reviews for the ''Dublin Review''. After his death a selection of these was published as ''The Church and the Empires'' (1874), with a biographical preface by Cardinal Newman. He died in Stroud, Gloucestershire, on 23 April 1873.
