Paul Mary Pakenham - Family Background: Letter from Herbert Chitty, Secretary Winchester College, to Fr. Joseph Smith ( see also 2/2/1-2). Asks if there is positive proof that Charles Reginald Pakenham (Fr.Paul Mary) was ever at Winchester? As his name is not on Register of Scholars (i.e, "on the foundation") he would have been a commoner. Commoner's register only starts with 1836 though an index of commoners from 1800-1836 was compiled in 1893 from the annual school rolls on which all the surnames of commoners was entered. Christian names were added later after careful enquiry from the families concerned. No C.R.P. appears, though the names of his brothers, Thomas Alexander and Henry Robert do appear. This would seem to indicate that Charles Reginald was never a pupil.
