Harry George Grey

Henry "Harry" George Grey (1851-1925) was an English missionary, author, aristocrat, and theologian who served as the third Principal of Wycliffe Hall, Oxford.

[2] After a training curacy in the London slums,[3] Grey served as Vicar of Holy Trinity Church, Oxford from 1876 to 1885 (a parish in the working-class suburb of St Ebbe's).

[5] Grey's work here was brief, as the greatest part of his ministry (1887-1909, with a break 1900-05) was spent as an agent of the Church Missionary Society in British India, particularly areas which would later become Pakistan, including Quetta, Amritsar, Lahore, and Gojra.

[8] Although Grey resigned the Principalship in 1905[9] for a second tour of service in India, he returned within five years to resume the post at Wycliffe in 1910.

The final years at Wycliffe were clouded by the First World War, during which the institution served to house refugees from Serbia and trainees from the Royal Flying Corps.
