  • Former Fellows Biographical Index Part
    Former Fellows of The Royal Society of Edinburgh 1783 – 2002 Biographical Index Part Two ISBN 0 902198 84 X Published July 2006 © The Royal Society of Edinburgh 22-26 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2PQ BIOGRAPHICAL INDEX OF FORMER FELLOWS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF EDINBURGH 1783 – 2002 PART II K-Z C D Waterston and A Macmillan Shearer This is a print-out of the biographical index of over 4000 former Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh as held on the Society’s computer system in October 2005. It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

    Neutral Citation Number: [2018] ECC Swk 3 IN THE CONSISTORY COURT OF THE DIOCESE OF SOUTHWARK IN THE MATTER OF HITHER GREEN CEMETERY AND IN THE MATTER OF A PETITION BY MS JANINE HARDWICK JUDGMENT Introduction 1. This is the petition of Ms Janine Hardwick. It was filed some time ago and I regret the delay in dealing with it. What happened was that, having read the petition and supporting documentation, I considered that it might be appropriate for an appropriate person to see the Petitioner and discover whether she might be assisted by some pastoral support. The matter was complicated by the fact that Ms Hardwick does not live in the Diocese and, in the event, a visit did not happen. It is now clear that the moment when such a visit might have been of value has now passed. Ms Hardwick remains of a fixed resolve to pursue her petition, as is her right. The facts 2. The petition seeks a faculty to exhume the remains of Owen Stephen Flight from Plot CZ 1i in the consecrated part of Hither Green Cemetery. This is in order that his remains may be cremated and kept at home by Ms Hardwick. 3. The background to the petition is that Owen Flight was the son of Ms Hardwick and Stephen Flight. He died aged five as a result of a brain tumour in October 2011 and his remains were buried in the consecrated part of Hither Green Cemetery. At a time of profound grief, Ms Hardwick and Mr Flight did not themselves make the arrangements for the burial.
