Edward Garrard Marsh (1783–1862)[1] was an English poet and Anglican clergyman.
Life
He was son of the composer John Marsh.[2] He was a good friend of William Hayley, and associated with him and William Blake.[3]
Marsh studied at Wadham College, Oxford, and on graduating became a Fellow of Oriel College, Oxford. He was a curate at Nuneham, and then bought a chapel in Hampstead. He became Residentiary Canon at Southwell. He was vicar of Sandon, Hertfordshire and then Aylesford, Kent.[4] He was Bampton Lecturer in 1848.
At 7 July 1813 Marsh married Lydia Williams (Gosport, England, 17 January 1788 - 13 December 1859) at Southwell, England. She was a sister of Rev. Henry Williams and Rev. William Williams.[5] Their grandfather Rev. Thomas Williams was a Congregational minister.
While he had connections to non-conformist family members, Marsh's beliefs followed that of low church evangelical Anglicanism.[6] He was also from 1821 a prebendary of Woodborough, Nottinghamshire,[7] an office suppressed in 1841 by the Church Commissioners. In 1836 he was the vicar of Aylesford, Kent.[8]
He was a member of the Church Missionary Society (CMS) and was described as 'influential' in the decision of Henry Williams and William Williams to convert to Anglicanism in February 1818,[6] and then to join the CMS.[9]
The South Africa and Patagonia missionary Allen Francis Gardiner's second wife, Elizabeth Lydia, was Marsh's daughter.[10]
