The sixth son of the Rev. William Hildyard, he was born in October 1805 at Winestead, Yorkshire. [1] He was educated at Shrewsbury School, [2] before going up to Peterhouse, Cambridge in 1826. He was elected a fellow in 1831, [1] and while he was a visiting fellow at the University of Oxford, Hildyard played two first-class cricket matches for Oxford University in 1832, both against the Marylebone Cricket Club. [3]
Hildyard took holy orders in the Church of England and was ordained in June 1832 as a priest at Rochester, a post he held for just under a year until he was transferred to Carlisle in 1833. He became the curate of Little Wilbraham in Cambridgeshire from 1834–42, during which time he was also a classics lecturer at the University of Cambridge. He became a rector at Loftus in North Yorkshire from 1842 until his death there in April 1886. [1] [4] On 12 June 1861 he married Octavia Richardson, daughter of William Richardson, Lord Mayor of York in 1847. They had 3 sons and 4 daughters. His brother was the scholar James Hildyard. [5]
