Charles Henry Hylton Stewart

Charles Henry Hylton Stewart (1849 - 1922) was an English clergyman and organist.

Background

Stewart was educated in Bath, Somerset before entering Christ's College, Cambridge in 1870. Migrating to St Catharine's College in 1871, he graduated B.A. in 1874 and M.A. in 1877.[1]

Charles Henry Hylton Stewart was Choral Scholar and Organist of St Catharine's College, Cambridge.[2] On James Pyne's departure, he acted as interim Organist of Chichester Cathedral and was formally appointed in May 1874.[3] The following year he left to take Holy Orders and was successively Minor Canon Precentor of Chester Cathedral (1877 - 89), Vicar of New Brighton (1889 - 1904),[4] and Rector of Bathwick, Bath (1904 - 16).

His son Charles Hylton Stewart, was Organist of Rochester Cathedral and of St. George's Chapel, Windsor.

His second son, Bruce Hylton-Stewart, played first-class cricket for Somerset County Cricket Club and appears generally to have used a hyphen in his surname.
