Boys entering Denstone College
(1939)
Volume 2 of the Denstone Register, listing boys entering Denstone College, the public school near Uttoxeter, from 1931 to 1952, was edited by E. T. Greenwood and published in 1957. The bulk of the information was obtained by enquiry with the Old Denstonians themselves, though not all could be contacted. Each item sets out, so far as could be ascertained: full name (in capitals, surname first); current address (as of 1957); school house; school record; and summary of career.HARRISON.

Boys entering Manchester Grammar School
(1939)
This Biographical Register of Old Mancunians lists boys alphabetically by year of entering the school. A bare register of entrants existed from 1888 onwards but it was only since the Second World War that any kind of detailed record was kept of those who passed through the school. So, in every case in this printed register, full name is given, in bold, surname first (in capitals); date of birth, and years attending the school; but for the earlier years sometimes there is no more information - or, equally, after investigation among Old Mancunians and published sources, the editors may have been able to furnish a condensed biography. An asterisk indicates a holder of a Foundation Scholarship. In the later years a current address is also given, as of 1964 to 1965, when the book was prepared.HARRISON.
