Dear Mr.Williamson,

Thank you for your enquiry of 8th December about
William Broughton.

According to Venn's, Alumni Cantabrigiedes, William

Broughton was admitted as a Pensioner, to Pembroke College,

at the age of 26 on May 7th 1814. He Matrioulated in the
Michaelmas of the same year. He was a Scholar and in 1818
was 6th wrangler. I assume therefore that he read Mathematics
as Eis main study. He became a M.A., in 1823 and a D.D., in
183 .

The rest of the history given is probably already
well known to you and concerns mainly his episcopal life in
Australia. If you want any more details of what Venn says,
I could send you a photo-copy. There is of course a good
deal about him in the D.N.B.

I hope this is of some help to you.

Yours sincerely,



W.S.Hutton, M.A.,
Assistant Libearian

J.J.Williamson Esq.,
