- Annie Besant
- James Ingall Wedgwood
- Helena Petrovna Blavatsky
- Curuppumullage Jinarajadasa
✔ Correct answer: James Ingall Wedgwood
Wedgwood co-founded the church with Leadbeater in 1916, and he was also its first archbishop. The church emerged from a reorganization of an Old Catholic community in Great Britain. It adopted many Catholic elements such as the sacraments, apostolic succession, and liturgy, but combined them with greater freedom in matters of belief and a broader spiritual openness.
