Hi Listers, I'm back researching my BENTHAM family from STAMFORD. John Bentham was the innkeeper of the George and Angel and later the Crown. Could someone point me in the direction of any existing school attendance lists or similar records in Stamford for the period 1780-1810 approx.? Many thanks, Jane

Jane In the early 1960s Stamford School published a register of known pupils since its foundation in 1532, and my brother has a copy at his house.  I will ask him to look in the book to see if any Benthams are listed around that time.  If there is a mention, the only information it will give is the years when the boy was at the school.  We also have a copy of "The History of Stamford School" published in the 1950s (I think), which may or may not be of use.

Hi John, Many thanks for your reply and thank you, too, for offering to look up the Stamford School register. Would you happen to know the names of other schools in the town for the same period? I'm assuming the sons would have been schooled but maybe not the girls?
