  • Wiltshire People Edward Collett Bowerchalke
    Wiltshire People Edward Collett Bowerchalke FATHER OF THE FARTHING NEWSPAPER Edward Collett was born at St Petersburg on 13.04.1847, and it was there also, at the British Chaplaincy, that he was baptised on 15.05.1847, the son of John Homes (Holmes) Collett and Sophia Eleanor Wilson. Some few years after his father died at St Petersburg in 1850, Edward and his mother and two brothers crossed Europe to end up in England. Once they arrived in London the family of four set up home in Brixton where it is believed they were living in 1861 although no record has yet been found. And it was during the mid-1860s that Edward began to attend St Bees Theological College in Cumberland. In 1816 the first Church of England college for the training of clergy outside Oxbridge was established at St Bees by William Law, the Bishop of Chester. Edward’s studies there were interrupted in 1866 when he received the sad news that his mother had died at the family home in Brixton. After completing the course at St Bees, Edward was ordained Deacon at Christ Church Cathedral in Oxford in 1870 by the Lord Bishop of Oxford, and the following year he was recorded at High Wycombe in Buckinghamshire. The census in 1871 described him as Edward Collett from Russia who was 23. After this he was offered appointments on the Isle of Man, where he spent the next five years in a number of different parishes, and then at Silverstone in Northamptonshire, where he worked for two years.
