William Robert Woodman (1828-1891)—"Dr. Woodman was a retired physician and a leading member of the SRIA [Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia]. Along with Mathers, Woodman was asked by Westcott to become one of the leaders of his new Order [of the Golden Dawn] in 1887. Woodman was an excellent Qabalist who had probably had a leading role in developing in the Qabalistic studies of the Golden Dawn. However, he died in 1891, before the Order was fully developed."
