Robert Cotton Mather (1808–1877) was an English missionary in India.
==Life==
The son of James Mather, a congregational minister, he was born at New Windsor, Manchester, on 8 November 1808, and educated at Edinburgh and Glasgow universities, and Homerton College. After his ordination at Lendal Chapel, York, on 1 June 1833, he went to India as an agent of the London Missionary Society.
Mather had the pastorate of the Union Chapel, Calcutta, for a few months, then moved to Benares, where he remained until May 1838. He settled at Mirzapur. There he established a new mission, and in course of time gathered a Christian community, built schools and churches, founded the orphan school press, and started and edited a monthly journal in Hindustani. He preached in the languages of Northern India, and was a member of various associations of missionaries in India.〔
Mather returned to England in 1873, after forty years' work in India. At the time of his death, which took place at Torrington Park, Finchley, London, on 21 April 1877, he was engaged on a commentary on the Old Testament in the same language.〔
