  • William Booth was born on 10th April 1829 at 12 Nottintone Place in the Nottingham suburb of Sneinton. At the age of thirteen he was apprenticed to Pawnbroker Francis Eames in Nottingham's Goose Gate. His own religious upbringing was somewhat sketchy to say the least, although his father insisted he attended church regularly for appearances sake. As a teenager he was won to the Methodists. Booths conversion was simple and undramatic. Around eleven o’clock one night in 1884, trudging home from a meeting through unpaved streets, a sudden spiritual exaltation flooded his whole being. He saw with unmistakable clarity that he must renounce sin, all and every sin, and atone to others for the wrong he had done them.
