Harold Burgoyne Rattenbury (1878-1962), grandson of John Rattenbury and brother of John Ernest Rattenbury, was born at Witney in Oxfordshire. He trained for the Wesleyan ministry at Headingley and in 1902 was appointed to the China Mission.
He remained in China for 32 years, the last thirteen of which were spent as Chairman of the Wuchang District. His residence in China ended in 1934 when he was appointed to a secretaryship at the Mission House in London, but he periodically returned to China and other parts of the Far East thereafter on tours of inspection. He was elected President of the Methodist Conference in 1949. Rattenbury wrote extensively about China and made regular radio broadcasts on Chinese affairs. (University of Manchester Library)
