George Rodney Eden (9 September 1853 – 7 January 1940) was an Anglican bishop, Bishop of Dover[1] and Wakefield[2]
George Rodney Eden was educated at Reading School and Pembroke College, Cambridge.[3] He began his ecclesiastical career as Chaplain to the Bishop of Durham. After an incumbency at Bishop Auckland – in latter years he was also Rural Dean[4] – he began what his Times obituary described as "nearly forty years of quiet but efficient service to the episcopate".[5]
His daughter Dorothy, herself mentioned in Despatches during the Great War,[5] married a clergyman, Clement Mallory Ricketts who was Bishop of Dunwich from 1945 until 1955.
