John Hunter(1897–1965) was the third bishop of Kimberley and Kuruman from 1943[1] until 1951. He was educated at Keble College, Oxford,[2] and ordained in 1922. His first post was as a curate in Harrow but his next post was in South Africa (where he was to spend the rest of his career). After a further curacy at St Paul’s church in Rondebosch[3] he rose rapidly in the Church hierarchy becoming successively rector of Okiep, Northern Cape; Stellenbosch and finally the cathedral parish at Bloemfontein before his elevation to the episcopate. He was awarded the Coronation Medal and died at George, just after Christmas in 1965, while still in office.
