Born in Kingston upon Hull on 28 April 1856, he was ordained to the priesthood on 31 May 1890. He was appointed the Bishop of the Diocese of Clifton by the Holy See on 15 March 1902.

He served as Bishop of Clifton during the Great War, during which he consecrated the Woodchester wayside cross (thought to be the first Great War memorial in the country) and condemned the Anglican Bishop of Birmingham Henry Wakefield for anti-Catholic bigotry, after he referred to British Roman Catholics as "guests of the nation". Burton died in office on 8 February 1931, aged 74. (en)
