Edward Craig Stuart (1827–1911)[1] was the second Anglican Bishop of Waiapu[2] whose episcopate spanned a 16-year period[3] during the second half of the 19th century.[4]

He was born in Edinburgh, educated at Trinity College, Dublin[5] and ordained in 1850.[6] With his great friend Valpy French[7] he worked in India[8] as a CMS missionary for 21 years, firstly at Agra and latterly (until his appointment to the episcopate) at Jalalpur. In 1893 he resigned as Bishop of Waiapu and his last calling was in Jalfa, Ispahan, Persia from 1894.[9][10] He died on 15 March 1911,[11] having at some point become a Doctor of Divinity (DD).
