Tufnell was born on 3 October 1814 in Bath, Somerset[2] and educated at Eton and Wadham College, Oxford.[3] He was the son of a banker, John Charles Tufnell, and Uliana Ivanova Margaret Fowell, who had a total of eighteen children.

Ecclesiastical career edit

Ordained a priest in 1839, his first posts were curacies at Broadwindsor and Broad Hinton.[4] After this he held incumbencies at Beechingstoke[5] and Marlborough.[6]

He served as Anglican Bishop of Brisbane from 1859 to 1874.[7]

While in Brisbane in 1863, Edward Tufnell commissioned architect Benjamin Backhouse to build the house Riversleigh on North Quay as an investment.[8]

Tufnell returned to England in 1874. In 1882 he became the vicar of Felpham near Bognor Regis and in 1888 he paid for the school to move to a new site in Felpham Way. The school is still named after him,[9] but moved again in 1957. The rector's vestry at St Mary's Church[10] was erected in 1899 as a memorial to him.

Marriage and family edit

Tufnell married his cousin, Laura Tufnell, who was the daughter of John Jolliffe Tufnell of Langleys, Great Waltham, Essex. They had two children: Arthur Wyndam Tufnell, who was murdered in India while travelling on a train to Simla; and Ida Mary Uliana Mary Tufnell, who married Henry Arthur Wansbrough, a priest. Ida was the grandmother of the Benedictine monk and scholar, Dom Henry Wansbrough.[11] Laura Tufnell was the sister of Maria Tufnell, who married Edward Strutt,[12] founder of Strutt & Parker estate agents. Maria was lady-in-waiting to Queen Charlotte. Tufnell died on 3 December 1896.[13]
