Owen Thomas Lloyd Crossley (30 April 1860 – 3 March 1926) was the fourth Anglican Bishop of Auckland for a short period during the second decade of the 20th century.
[1] Educated at the Belfast Academy and Trinity College, Dublin[2] he was made deacon 8 June 1884 and ordained priest 31 May 1885, both times at Down;[3] and began his ecclesiastical career with a curacy at Seapatrick, County Down.
[7] He was also Archbishop's Chaplain, a lecturer at St John's Theological College, Melbourne (1907-1911),[8] and Chairman of Governors of Geelong Grammar School.
[9] Not long after his appointment in 1905, he was elected to a vacancy on the Council of Trinity College (University of Melbourne).
Ill health prompted his return from New Zealand two years later[11] — he resigned his See effective 30 September 1913[3] — and he served the remainder of his career as Rector of St Andrew's Major near Cardiff (1914–1917) and Assistant Bishop of Llandaff (2 June 1917 – 30 April 1921),[3] retiring to Bramshott, Hampshire.
