Biography

Stephen Reville D.D., O.S.A. KGCHS (9 May 1844 – 18 September 1916) was a Bishop of Sandhurst, Victoria (Australia).

Reville was born in Wexford on 9 May 1844. He entered the Augustinian order at Callan, County Kilkenny, and studied on the Continent, taking the degree of Master in Philosophy and Sacred Theology at Ghent. Soon after his ordination in 1867 he was appointed President of St Laurence's Seminary, Usher's Quay, Dublin, and he held the office for seven years.

He accompanied the first Bishop of Sandhurst (Martin Crane) to Australia in 1875, and on the failure of that prelate's eyesight, he was appointed Coadjutor-Bishop, having previously held the office of Vicar-General and acted as administrator of the diocese from 1882 during Dr. Crane's absence. He was consecrated on 29 March 1885.

Reville became bishop on 21 October 1901. He was a Knight of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre.
