A former Archdeacon of Armagh, he became Bishop of Meath in 1842 and died in post on 17 September 1850. His son Edward Adderly Stopford was also a Church of Ireland cleric, and served as Rector of Kells, and Archdeacon of Meath appointed by his father. Stopford's granddaughter was the writer, historian, and nominee to the Irish Free State Senate Alice Stopford Green (1847–1929).
