Henry Ustick Onderdonk

Henry Ustick Onderdonk (1789-1858) was born in New York City. He studied at Columbia University, receiving his degree in 1805. He was ordained to the diaconate and priesthood by Bishop John Henry Hobart. He was consecrated Bishop of Pennsylvania in 1827, serving initially as assistant to Bishop William White. Onderdonk was a strong advocate of the pre-Tractarian High Church position, in company with his brother Benjamin Treadwell Onderdonk. Henry Ustick Onderdonk was suspended from the exercise of his episcopal office after rumors of alcoholism. This suspension was lifted before his death.
