Hubert Brasier (20 August 1917 – October 1981) was a clergyman of the Church of England, and father of Theresa May, 54th and 2nd female Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.[1][2][3][4]
Brasier was born in Wandsworth, London, to Tom Brasier, a clerk and former sergeant in the King's Royal Rifle Corps, and Amy Margaret, née Patterson.[4] In 1940, he graduated from the University of Leeds and trained at the College of the Resurrection, Mirfield.[4][5] His wife was Zaidee Mary (née Barnes; 1928–1982), whom he married at St Giles' Church, Reading, in 1955.[4]
Brasier was ordained deacon in 1942 and ordained priest at Southwark Cathedral in 1943.[5] He was curate of St Andrew's Catford from 1942, then of St Luke's Reigate from 1948.[5] In 1953, he became chaplain of All Saints' Hospital in Eastbourne, where May was born.[5] He became vicar of Enstone (with Heythrop from 1964) in 1959 and finally of St Mary the Virgin, Wheatley, to the east of Oxford, from 1970.[6] As Vicar of Wheatley, May wrote a short guide to the parish church.[7]
Brasier died in 1981 following a car accident on the A40.[8]
