William Ridley (bishop)
William Ridley (22 July 1836 – 25 May 1911) was an English missionary for the Church of England in Canada and served as Bishop of Caledonia.
==Life==
Ridley was from Brixham Devonshire, England, and was the son of a stonemason. He was a carpenter before attending the Church Missionary Society's Islington Training School and being sent, in 1866, to missionize among Afghans in what was then the province of Peshawar in India. His rough time there, plagued by disease and low morale, lasted only three years. Next he served as priest of the Anglican church in Dresden from 1867-1872.
Returning to England, he became vicar of St Paul's Church in Huddersfield from 1874-1879. In 1879 Ridley was created Bishop of the newly created Diocese of Caledonia in northern British Columbia, and he and his wife Jane set out for Canada. His appointment involved ensuring that missions under the Church Missionary Society (CMS) adhered to Anglican doctrine. This put him in direct conflict with William Duncan, the charismatic lay missionary in charge of the Tsimshian mission at Metlakatla, a utopian Christian community which was drifting from Anglican orthodoxy in the direction of Duncan's own low-church evangelicalism.
