Quant je Puis. [Stonyhurst motto] 

Welcome to the Stonyhurst Archive

This archive contains a list of famous OS and material pertinent to my time at Stonyhurst (1966 – 1970):

• The Stonyhurst Galleries
• Memorabilia (listed below)

Famous OS

This list of famous OS  is from a book published in 2006 by TE Muir (and includes the man who allegedly designed the Irish flag!), courtesy of Stephen Roche.

I was amused to see an actual FRANCIS URQUHART (1868-1934): Dean of Balliol College, Oxford. Ian Richardson has much to answer for…

I’ve made this file machine readable so you can do text searches etc.

Memorabilia

Where possible, I’ve provided text searchable pdfs which you can read and/or download.

Please feel free to contribute; your inputs will be gratefully received and added to the archive as and where appropriate.

The Eagle – 53rd edition, slightly soiled

The Eagle – 1970, good condition

Drama Programme – Great Academies 1968

Measure for Measure Programme

Larry Dunsmore Recital

Bossnote

Note from Father Bossy posted in the New Wing common room. His writing style is unmistakable… I wonder what Xi Jinping’s memos are like?

[Amended] Class Lists for 1969

A good reference for identifying those of us who’ve gone off the radar / shuffled off our mortal coils etc. See table below (for our year only) and pdf (for the complete listing). Note: those who left after o’levels aren’t listed here.

And the full listing for that year

The Curious Incident of the Car in the Night

I was never officially identified as the trigger for this unfortunate chain of events…

Nerd alert: who was integrating 1/(x-1) on my copy? It’s not my handwriting. An interesting example of limits and infinite series – as I appreciated later when I did the pure maths part of my MSc!

Stonyhurst diary 1971

Complete with list of cigarettes – To buy? Smoked? Owned? Owed? Who knows? Surely the currency of Her Majesty’s pleasure not a prestigious alma mater…? [That’s enough question marks. Ed]
