Commissioner Charles Henry Jeffries (1864 – 1 February 1936) was a British pioneer Salvationist and notable convert, after he left the Skeleton Army and attained the third highest rank possible as an Officer in The Salvation Army^[1].

Jeffries served in Britain, Australia and China in roles such as Corps Officer, Secretary for Social Work, Training Officer and Territorial Commander. He also travelled extensively, preaching the Gospel throughout those regions, as well as the United States and Canada^[1].

Jeffries was one of the seven Commissioners that called for the first Salvation Army High Council and was notably involved in the controversy that surrounded the council's vote that Bramwell Booth should be removed as General of The Salvation Army^[1][2].
