Hello List: Back on the trail of my PRITCHARD clan and need a little help if possible. My gggrandfather Charles James PRITCHARD (born England August, 1862) was ordained "Deacon" in Winnipeg in 1892 (source Diocese of Rupert's Land records). There is also a note stating simply "1883-St. Paul's Coll. Burgh". I have found him and his wife in the 1891 NWT census and he is listed 'Pastor to the Cree' and is listed with his wife Alice. I have 2 questions for anyone who may be able to help and they are: 1. What is and where is St. Paul's Coll. Burgh (Is this anywhere in Manitoba?) and how would I get information on it? 2. If he was ordained Deacon in Winnipeg in 1892, where would he have taken his studies and how would I access records? Thanks to any and all who may be able to help fill in the blanks.

Hi Sharon, I did some research on a clergyman born in Ireland and later ministered in Ontario & Selkirk. I received some information from the Diocese of Rupert's Land, also from the churches he ministered at. If Charles Prichard was with the Church of England you can also fax the Lambeth Place Library in England. They hold the Crockford Clerical Directory. This information has when & where clergymen were schooled. Fax # +44 (0) 20 7928 7932. I did find a Charles James Prichard aged 9 in 1871 born Clunbury, Shropshire, England. If this is of any interest to you let me know. Good luck with your research.
