  • John Oldham - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series John Oldham - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive John Oldham(9 August 1653 – 9 December 1683) John Oldham was an English satirical poet and translator. <b>Life and Work</b> Oldham was born in Shipton Moyne, Gloucestershire, the son of John Oldham, a non-conformist minister, and grandson of John Oldham the staunch anti-papist rector of Shipton Moyne and before that of Long Newton in Wiltshire. He was educated first at Tetbury grammar school, then at St. Edmund Hall at the University of Oxford, where the Principal was Thomas Tully, an ex-headmaster from Oldham's school at Tetbury. Tully was "a person of severe morals, puritanically inclined and a struict Calvinist. Oldham received a B. A. degree in May 1674. He became an usher at the Whitgift School in Croydon, Surrey (now in Greater London), a position that was poorly paid, monotonous and left little time for him to compose poetry; his discontent at the time was expressed in these lines from one of his satires - "To a friend about to leave University": <i>"But who would be to the vile drudgery bound Where there so small encouragement is found? Where you for recompense for all your pains, Shall hardly reach a common fiddler's gains? For when you've toiled and laboured all you can, To dung and cultivate a barren brain, A Dancing-Master shall be better paid, Tho' he instructs the Heels and you the Head."</i> By then, his poetry had already been published, since he received an unexpected visit at the school from an illustrious party including the Earl of Rochester, Charles Sedley and the Earl of Dorset (part of the "merry gang", as Andrew Marvell called them), who wished to express their appreciation of his work.

BILLITER SQUARE BUILDINGS. LONDON. THE ST. CATHERINE PRESS 34, NORFOLK STREET STRAND, W.C. HtelSKC PREFACE TO THE VOLUME FOR j6oj (Reprinted) After even fifty years’ original research among our old records, a genealogist, interested in the history of all the branches of one English family, would know that many branches remained to be traced. Much of his time would have been wasted in searching “ likely ” registers, which, on examination, proved to contain no data for him. Experience teaches every earnest student of family history that what he needs, is not more records, but more clues as to the contents of the available records. “ Indexes and more Indexes ” is his cry, and the publisher who issues a genealogical work without an index merits (and often receives) his imprecations. No records require an Index so urgently as the Parish Registers, which record the baptisms, marriages and burials of our ancestors. These are spread over all the country, and, not only is there no general index to their contents, but there is not even an Index in each Parish to its own Registers.
