great! thankyou so much. this has truely been a fascinating subject. the lives of these people are so intreaging. i feel quite sad that my research is comming to an end. there are a few people i dont think i will ever find. such as florence crawford and cyril allen.the records showed so many records it was impossible for me to work out which was the right one and i can find no trace of maggie and harry fisk at all. but ive been lucky in finding the others. I also deciphered one more name, that of urban w doar. i had previously ignored it thinking it was another swiss student but then i realised he lived at prospect house. my research shows he had a wife lucy and an adopted daughter in 1881.from what i can make out he lived very close to the school. he also lived from his own means according to the census, this i gathered to mean that he was wealthy. is he another famous person in heanors history perhaps?
