Joseph John Booth CMG (26 May 1887 – 30 October 1965) was the 7th Anglican Archbishop of Melbourne.
Booth was educated at the University of Melbourne and ordained as a priest in 1914.[1] His first position was as a chaplain to the Australian Naval and Military Expeditionary Force during World War I. When peace came he became vicar of Fairfield, Victoria and later the Archdeacon of Dandenong before becoming a coadjutor bishop in the Melbourne diocese (with the courtesy title of "Bishop of Geelong"[2]) and often deputised for the archbishop, Frederick Waldegrave Head.[3] In 1936 he additionally became Archdeacon of Melbourne.[4] Booth became the archbishop of the Anglican Diocese of Melbourne in 1942.[5] Further wartime service with the Allied Invasion Forces[6] provided an unusual start to an episcopate. He retired in 1957.
