Vedder Van Dyck (July 18, 1889 — August 2, 1960) was the fifth bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Vermont.[1]

A graduate of Columbia College (1918)[2] and the General Theological Seminary in New York (1914),[3] he was consecrated on February 24, 1936.[4] His consecrators were James DeWolf Perry, Henry Knox Sherrill and John T. Dallas.[5] Prior to this, Van Dyck was served Saint Mary's Church in Amityville, New York, where he was ordained as deacon (1914), priest (1915), and priest-in-charge and rector (1917–1929).[6] He retired as bishop on August 2, 1960, and was succeeded by Harvey D. Butterfield.[1]

He was a Freemason under the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge of New York.[7]
