Handley Carr Glyn Moule was the youngest of eight sons of Henry Moule [1801 - 1880] and Mary Mullett Evans and was born in Fordington on the 23rd December 1841. His father a prominent evangelical clergyman and Vicar of St George’s church carried out his baptism on 13th February 1842.
Handley was named after his godfather Augustus Bernard Handley, a great friend of his father’s and Captain in the Army, who had been born in Bombay around 1803 but baptised back in England in Rochester Cathedral in 1810. Augustus had been ordained under his fathers ministry and became the incumbent of Christ Church, the small Chapel his father built for the soldiers before moving on to Alton Pancras.
His second and third names came from Carr John Glyn, another wealthy friend, also his godfather, who was a champion of the poor, the staunchest of protestants and a loving devotee of the Bible Society who survived until 1896 only 20 months short of his century.
