Reverend George Augustus Mayo How

Prebendary of St Paul's, Rural Dean of Stepney and Vicar of Bromley St Leonard for twenty years.

We learn from his obituary in the Guardian of 1 March 1893 that, apart from his first 6 months and his time as a student in Oxford and his first curacy there, he lived his whole live in Bromley.  In 1866 he was appointed to St Gabriel’s in Bromley, and then in 1872 he succeeded his father as vicar of the parish church where he remained a long time.

We have also seen his name as "Howe".
