The other day I was fortunate enough to see the originals of our old school registers. They were en route to the County Record Office for safe keeping but I was able to inspect them overnight. Being unable and unwilling to copy all 1,850 entries I felt the least I could do was to list those Catholics who left the school for other countries. The details are below.
For any other members who had Catholic ancestors who were educated in this Brighton school, or may have been pupils there themselves, the records will now be at Lewes for your investigation. Regrettably I cannot afford time to undertake searches in these books for members. However, the pupils and I would be interested to hear from anyone who has past links with the school.
