Archdeacon William John Woodcock
On the recommendation of his panel of three doctors, Archdeacon William John Woodcock (1808-1868) arranged a voyage to England to recuperate his health. When Archdeacon Woodcock travelled on the City of Adelaide from London to arrive home at North Adelaide in October 1866, he was completing that return trip. He took up his work again, but it was still interrupted by bouts of severe illness, and he died within 18 months.
