Wedgwood of the Liberal Catholic Church.

His efforts on behalf of the society assured his status as one of its leading members until his death in 1934.Leadbeater was born in Stockport, Cheshire, in 1854. His father, Charles Sr., was born in Lincoln and his mother Emma was born in Liverpool. He was an only child.
