His first ecclesiastical post was as curate of Upton cum Chalvey in Buckinghamshire from 1857–58, before becoming the personal tutor to the sons of the Earl Fitzwilliam. He ceased to be employed by the Earl in 1864 when he became the rector at Tankersley, Yorkshire until 1886.

In 1885, he was employed by Eton College as a conduct master, while maintaining his rectorship at Tankersley. He died there in August 1886. His older brother Joseph was also a Church of England cleric, while his younger brother, Samuel, was also a first-class cricketer. (en)
