William Channing Woodbridge (December 8, 1794 – November 9, 1845) was an American geographer, educational reformer, and the author of many geography textbooks.
==Early life and family==
Woodbridge's father, William Woodbridge, was a Yale University graduate, a minister, and a major advocate for educational change in Connecticut. The senior Woodbridge wrote textbooks on grammar and spelling, was the first preceptor of Phillips Academy. He worked with his son on some of the younger Woodbridge’s projects. His mother was Ann Channing, the aunt of Bostonian Unitarian theologian William Ellery Channing.
William Channing Woodbridge was born in Medford, Massachusetts. His family soon moved to Connecticut, where his parents taught him Latin, Greek, chemistry and mathematics. Throughout his life, he suffered from what was then called scrofula, which today probably be diagnosed as tuberculosis.〔Alcott, William A: “Memoir of William C.
