Robert Billing, Bishop of Bedford

Bishop of Bedford, 1888 -1898. Preceded by William Walsham How (1823 - 1897) who we think may be the father of George Augustus Mayo How (the one with the Memorial Gateway). WWH is the right generation, worked in the East End of London and died while on holiday in County Mayo. We are convinced.
