Steward
c.1718 Theodore Waterland was appointed Steward and Bursar
1786 William Bywater was serving as Steward (appointment dates unknown)
? - 1802 Rev Richard Buck was Steward and Bursar.
1802 - Rev Samuel Lowe was appointed Steward, Librarian, and Registrar (he took on the duties of Bursar when Rev Thomas Paley was ill in 1805). Lowe possibly died in 1834.
1834-1870 - ????
In MACD/14/3/3/3 the accounts are signed and sometimes 'Steward is written after the signature as follows - John Fortescue 1818-1820 (name appears earlier but without 'Steward'). John Lodge 1821-1828 (after 1829 he is listed as President but he could still have been Steward); G. Urquart 1834-1837 (possibly from 1834 and possibly later)
1870-1896 Francis Pattrick. When he died he bequeathed £1,000 to the College.
1896-1897 Mr Gill (former Assistant Steward)
Nov 1897 - Easter Term 1899 the Master acted as Steward in the absence of Gill (ill health). Gill died in Dec 1899 or Jan 1900.
1900 - A.S. Ramsey was appointed Steward.
In 1901 when the cook William Swannell retired Ramsey resumed control of the Kitchens - the last Cambridge College to do so. Previously the Kitchen and Buttery were in effect 'privatised' being managed by a Cook (also referred to as the caterer) and Butler who owned much of the equipment and were entitled to take all the profits. This was an immediate success and in the first year the Kitchen Account shows a £200 profit. By 1912 the profit was £1200.
In 1948 Dr Ladborough resigned as Steward due to ill health
1948-? Mr Bennett
Assistant Steward
27 February 1890 - It was agreed that there should be an assistant steward, whose duties would begin in Michaelmas Term 1890. He would receive one half of the Steward’s stipend [MCBG/4/2/1]. On 11 June 1890 Mr Gill was appointed Assistant Steward [MCGB/4/2/1].
Butler
The Butler's name has been written in the front of some of the Buttery Books. This gives us a partial list of the names of the Butlers although we don't have exact dates. The College Order Book (MCGB4/2/1) also provides more information.
By 1672 - 1686 Alen Townsend
1686 - 1730 Edward Townsend
1730 - 1743 Thomas Hooten
1743 - 1789 John Palmer
1789 - 1799 Edward Mills [1]
1799-1858 Unknown
1858 – 1872 Thomas Bradfield
1872 – 1912 Jack French [2]
In 1942 it was A. Milne
[1] At a meeting of the Master and Fellows on 7 March 1799 [MCGB/4/2/1] it was reported that the College had been defrauded to a very considerable amount by the late Butler, Edward Mills. They resolved to use all legal means to recover the amount of that fraud.
[2] In 1901 the cook William Swannell died and the College resumed control of the kitchen and Buttery. A.S. Ramsey was appointed Steward and Jack French was Butler and Kitchen Manager.
