  • Women's Cricket, Pioneers and Unsung Heroes
    Women’s Cricket, Pioneers and Unsung Heroes The important contribution made to women’s cricket by former students of Dartford College of Physical Education © The Ӧsterberg Collection Jane Claydon 2021 Unsung Heroes A great deal of publicity has been given to women’s cricket in the last decade and yet, some modern authors, in their histories of the game, have not included the names of many talented international cricketers with links to Dartford. Perhaps this is because the authors were not taught by members of staff trained at a Specialist College of Physical Education and are unaware of the heritage of Dartford, Bedford, Chelsea, Dunfermline and other later foundations. As a result, they have missed out on a rich history of women cricketers and administrators. I am sure Mary Duggan would be surprised to find that her lengthy and significant career is not highlighted in one recent publication. I have attempted to redress the balance and introduce the reader to many other players who trained at Dartford College. They may not be household names, but during their careers they influenced the development of the game for women and the outcome of many significant matches. Information about the history of women’s cricket is easy to find. Several books of interest have been published in the last half century. Perhaps, Nancy Joy’s Maiden Over, published in 1950, is overlooked by younger researchers, but it is a source of interesting details about the 1948/49 tour to Australia and New Zealand in which the author participated. The Cricket Archive can provide details of the performance of all England women cricketers, the WCA year books are available to view online and many of the players feature on the pages of Wikipedia.

  • The First Century of the Churchman 1 JOHN WOLFFE
    The First Century of The Churchman 1 JOHN WOLFFE In October 1879 The Churchman, which claimed to be 'commenced out of a single desire to promote the glory of God', first appeared. 2 Although there have been significant changes in the character of the periodical during its history it has now maintained unbroken publication for over a century, as a monthly until 1920 and as a quarterly thereafter. This achievement is not only intrinsically worthy of a commemorative article, but indicates that The Churchman is an important and largely untapped source for the history of Evangelicalism within the Church of England during the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries? This article thus aims to provide a brief account of the magazine's own development and to relate this to the wider context of the position of Anglican Evangelicalism in the Church and nation. The discernment of historical turning points is always a hazardous undertaking, but when the attempt is made, it can be concluded that the late 1870s were marked by more significant changes than other more instantly remembered phases in British history. When The Churchman began publication Disraeli's Conservative Government had been in office for nearly six years, but within six months it had suffered a crushing General Election defeat and Disraeli's own death a year after this removed one of the giants of the mid-Victorian political scene. In the month after The Churchman's first appearance Gladstone initiated his famous Midlothian campaign, presenting to the electorate a classic indictment of allegedly imperialist foreign policies. In economic and social life, too, 1879 was a noteworthy year.

  • National Archdeacons' Forum Mailing
    NATIONAL ARCHDEACONS’ FORUM serving the Church of England and the Church in Wales Archdeacons’ News Bulletin no. 29 November 2017 from Norman Boakes Archdeacons’ National Executive Officer While it is true that structures and processes are important and can have a great impact, it is also true that it is people that matter most. People make a difference, both as individuals and when working as a group. The news of Bernadette Kenny’s death in mid-October was a huge shock to everyone. Bernadette and I had only been in email correspondence the day before, following up some matters of interest to archdeacons. She had been her usual responsive, helpful and constructive self. She has made an enormous contribution in her role as Chief Executive of the Pensions Board, and William Nye has written that “Bernadette was a hugely valued and respected colleague and will be very sadly missed”. Our thoughts and prayers are particularly with her husband, children and family and also with her close friends and immediate colleagues. At the end of this month, we will also be saying “farewell” to Jackie Freestone as she retires from her work at Ministry Division after more than twenty years’ service. Jackie has been the Archdeacons’ Forum Administrator since May 2014 and has been a very supportive and committed colleague. My work would have been much more difficult without her encouragement, knowledge and skills; she has served the archdeacons well. We will miss her very much, and send our very best wishes, love and prayers for the next phase of her life.

  • Blain Biographical Directory of Anglican Clergy in the Diocese of Honolulu 1862-1902 Final Edition (2012, Corrected 2018)
    Blain Biographical Directory of Anglican clergy in the diocese of Honolulu 1862-1902 final edition (2012, corrected 2018) The “Reformed Catholic Church of Hawai’i” began with the consecration of the first bishop of Honolulu, Thomas Nettleship STALEY in 1861. In 1872 the diocese became the “Anglican Church of Hawai’i”, under his successor Alfred WILLIS the second and final bishop of Honolulu. On WILLIS’s resignation in 1902, the see became the missionary district of Honolulu within the Episcopal Church of the United States of America, and in 1969 the diocese of Hawai'i. This biographical directory lists some 58 clergy who passed through the diocese of Honolulu in the first forty years of Anglican church life. Few priests were in the diocese more than a year or two. Several lives are evasive shadows. The Honolulu church initiative confronted a complex changing society in Hawai’i. Their royal patrons and the indigenous Polynesian people were pressed aside as the commercial interests of North American (and European) planters drove all before them. Their plantations were worked by imported Chinese and Japanese workers among whom the diocese did begin work. The inadequacies of diocesan leadership and the crippling lack of funding overwhelmed quixotic hopes, leaving a divided and worn Anglican remnant to be rescued by the Episcopal church of the USA in 1902. While these entries were compiled from the best evidence available, the compiler had no access to primary documents in Honolulu. The full Blain Biographical Directory of Anglican Clergy in the South Pacific (which includes about 1,500 priests) may be found on the Project Canterbury website http://anglicanhistory.org/nz/blain_directory/ That directory was compiled without funding but with assistance from hundreds of correspondents and agencies from 1991.
