Leonard Fisher

Leonard Noel Fisher (14 December 1881 – 4 July 1963) was an Anglican bishop in the second quarter of the twentieth century.

After parish work in England and military service in the First World War, he served as bishop in two African dioceses, Lebomo and Natal, before retiring in 1951.

From 1915 to 1917 he was the first vicar of St Nicholas, Hull,[3] and in 1917–18 a temporary World War I Chaplain.

According to The Times, in that position he showed "great energy and resource in dealing with the special problems of Anglican work in Portuguese East Africa" and "conspicuous qualities of tact and far-sighted administrative judgment".

[3] In June 1934 Fisher was embroiled in a dispute between Anglican congregations within Natal, some refusing to recognise the diocese; at one point he was locked out of one of the dissident churches.
