	Stonyhurst College
		Stonyhurst is the lineal descendant of the college founded by Father Robert Persons in 1592, at St. Omer in Artois, for English boys, compelled by the penal laws of Elizabethan times to seek on the continent that religious education which was denied them at home.
		At the Stonyhurst training college more advanced courses in these subjects are followed by students of the Society, who are engaged in such additional subjects as pedagogy, biology, anthropology, etc. The "Philosophers", numbering usually about thirty, possess the status of university students.
		The rector of Stonyhurst is one of a limited number of headmasters to whom the War Office has granted the power of giving direct nominations to the Royal Military College, Sandhurst.

	Thomas Muir, 'Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam: Catholic Church Music at Everingham and Stonyhurst 1839-1914'
		Everingham and Stonyhurst are thus, in a sense, examples of the export of this culture to the provinces.
		Stonyhurst responded to the Papal decrees by purchasing copies of Pothier's Les Mélodies Grégoriènnes, Schwann editions of the Kyriale (1906) based on the Vatican Typical edition, an Epitome E Graduali published by Pustet in 1911, also based on the Vatican Typical edition, and the Liber Antiphonarius published by the Vatican Press in 1912.
		Thus a clear divergence between Everingham and Stonyhurst occurs in the 1900s although, at least with plainchant, the connection was restored in the 1930s.

		Next, a Stonyhurst disk and its holder are placed on alignment holes recessed into the drawing table to keep the holder square to the edges of the table.
		The Stonyhurst disk is a circular piece of cardboard drawn to the same diameter as the solar image and equipped with lines of solar latitude and longitude to be used as a reference for sunspot positions.
		Since the plane of the Stonyhurst is also near the focal plane of the telescope, sunspots will be projected onto the disk, and their heliocentric positions can be easily read and recorded.

	Stonyhurst College - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		After St. Omer (still known in Stonyhurst parlance by its old English name of St. Omers, the college settled in Bruges where it continued until 1773 when it was again forced to move, reassembling at Liège.

		During the 19th century, Stonyhurst was a leading Jesuit cultural centre and also notable for its scientific activities, including the meteorological records of the Observatory which finally closed in the early 1960s.

		Stonyhurst and St. Peter’s Kubatana are two schools with vastly different stories, but a shared history of forced migration and the refusal to bow to oppression.
		Both have faced persecution: Stonyhurst as a consequence of Religion and St. Peter’s Kubatana because of Race.
		The challenge for Stonyhurst is to react to the plight of St. Peter’s Kubatana and demonstrate the qualities of compassion and conviction that Jesuit Education instils.

		The requirements in physics and mathematics insisted upon by the University of London at that time constituted a formidable obstacle to Stonyhurst boys whose time had been almost monopolized by their Latin and Greek studies.
		During the last five years of his life, passed at Stonyhurst, he began a "Short History of England" which was unfinished at his death.

	John James & Joseph Benjamin Hemingway
		John and James were together at Castleford in 1830, and John, perhaps alone, in Cheshire in 1831, which suggests that the two younger brothers may have gone to Stonyhurst in the autumn of the latter year, subsequent to the burial of James Philip at Dewsbury Parish Church.
		For, during 1837, a daughter, Hannah, was born to John and Mary Hemingway at Leighton Buzzard, revealed by the 1851 Census, which gives her birthplace and age (13), though no birth certificate or record of baptism has been traced.
		Meanwhile, before 1836 and perhaps even before leaving Stonyhurst - Catholic Foxleys are stated to be numerous in that part of Lancashire - Joseph Benjamin Hemingway had married Susannah Foxley, and in 1836-7 he became the father of a daughter, Mary, whose birthplace has not been traced.
