    United Methodist Bishops Ordination Chain 1784 - 2012 General Commission on Archives and History Madison, New Jersey 2012 UNITED METHODIST BISHOPS in order of Election This is a list of all the persons who have been consecrated to the office of bishop in The United Methodist Church and its predecessor bodies (Methodist Episcopal Church; Methodist Protestant Church; Methodist Episcopal Church, South; Church of the United Brethren in Christ; Evangelical Association; United Evangelical Church; Evangelical Church; The Methodist Church; Evangelical United Brethren Church, and The United Methodist Church). The list is arranged by date of election. The first column gives the date of election; the second column gives the name of the bishop. The third column gives the name of the person or organization who ordained the bishop. The list, therefore, enables clergy to trace the episcopal chain of ordination back to Wesley, Asbury, or another person or church body. We regret that presently there are a few gaps in the ordination information, especially for United Methodist Central Conferences. However, the missing information will be provided as soon as it is available. This list was compiled by C. Faith Richardson and Robert D. Simpson .

  • METHODIST BISHOPS THEIR ORDINATION AS DEACONS and ELDERS by Roy H
    METHODIST BISHOPS THEIR ORDINATION AS DEACONS AND ELDERS By Roy H. Short (We are indebted to Bishop Roy H. Short, Secretary of the Coun- cil of Bishops, for a long and arduous piece of historical research in which he has traced the ordination of the bishops of Methodism. Starting with Bishop Thomas Coke, Bishop Short has supplied the facts concerning the ordination as deacon and elder for the episcopal leaders of the church. In the tabular compilation below, Bishop Short gives the year of each man's elevation to the episcopacy, his name, date of birth, date of death (if he has passed on), and the name of the bishop or bishops who ordained him deacon and elder. The dates of the ordinations are not given. The table lists all of the bishops of the church from 1784 to 1967. The bishops elected by The United Methodist Church in 1968 and those from the former Evangelical United Brethren Church who became bishops in the united church in 1968 are not included. In sending the results of his research to Methodist History, Bishop Short said that it was "a long but interesting task." It will be noted that he has supplied full information concerning all but fifteen of the bishops. He and this magazine will be grateful to anyone who can furnish the missing data on Bishops Bashford, Birney, Chen, Dodge, Elphick, M. S. Hughes, W. A. C.' Hughes, Hartzell, Kim, Lowe, D. H. Moore, Nuelsen, Oldham, J. W. Roberts, and Wang. Communications to Bishop Short may be addressed to him in care of Methodist History, Lake Junaluska, N.
