Early life and education
Illingworth was born in London on 26 June 1848[7] to an Anglo-Catholic family,[8] the second son of Edward Arthur Illingworth (1807–1883), chaplain to Middlesex House of Correction,[9] and his wife, Mary Taylor.[10] He was educated at St Paul's School, an all-boys public school[citation needed] in London.[11] As a child, he worshipped at St Alban's Church, Holborn, and at All Saints, Margaret Street.[11] He won both an exhibition and a scholarship to attend the University of Oxford.[12] He then studied literae humaniores (classical studies) at Corpus Christi College, Oxford, and achieved first-class honours in both mods and greats,[13] graduating in 1871 with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree.[14]
In 1900, Illingworth was awarded an honorary Doctor of Divinity (DD) degree by the University of Edinburgh.[15][16]
Career
From 1872 to 1883, Illingworth was a Fellow and Tutor of Jesus College, Oxford, and a Tutor of Keble College, Oxford.[17] He was ordained in the Church of England as a deacon in 1875 and as a priest in 1876.[18] From 1883 until his death, he was Rector of St Mary's Church, Longworth in the Diocese of Oxford.[17] He was also a Select Preacher of the University of Oxford from 1882 to 1891 and of the University of Cambridge from 1884 to 1895.[17] In 1894, he gave the Bampton Lectures at the University of Oxford; the series was titled "Personality, Human and Divine".[19] He was made an honorary canon of Christ Church, Oxford, on 6 February 1905.[20]
Personal life
In June 1883, Illingworth became engaged to Agnes Louisa Gutteres.[21] They were married at St Bartholomew's Church in Nymet Rowland, Devon, on 2 August 1883.[22]
Illingworth died on 22 August 1915 in Longworth, aged 67,[23] and was buried at St Mary's Church.[24]
