Bramwell Booth (March 8, 1856 – June 16, 1929) was the 2nd General of The Salvation Army (1912-1929).
He was born William Bramwell Booth in Halifax, Yorkshire, England, the eldest of eight children born to William Booth and Catherine Mumford.
He became an active full-time collaborator with his father in 1874, and an officer when the Army began in 1878.
In 1881, General William Booth appointed Bramwell as his Chief of the Staff of The Salvation Army. Bramwell would hold this title until his father's death, when he himself was named General in his father's will.
Bramwell was largely responsible for the development of the Army.
He was also known for his teaching of the doctrine of holiness of The Salvation Army, his councils with officers and working with young people.
