Roderic Dunkerley (July 20, 1884 – May 6, 1966) was an English minister and Christian writer. Born in Bedford Park, Ealing, West London, he was the son of William Arthur Dunkerley (a.k.a. John Oxenham). The novelist Elsie J. Oxenham was his sister, as was Erica Oxenham, the biographer of their father, who gives brief details of his early life within the pages of those biographies.[1] He married and had children, and was a Congregational minister.[2]
