[edit] Craven Scholarship
The Craven Scholarship at Oxford University is a classical scholarship on the foundation of John, Lord Craven (d. 1648), who also founded the travelling fellowships which bear his name for the study of antiquities. See [1] for the Statutes & Regulations. Several other Craven Scholars are to be found in Wikipedia. DFH 21:06, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
- The nearest match I have found in genealogical data is to Craven, John, Lord Craven of Ryton (1610-06-10-c.1650). See [2]. DFH 21:11, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
- There is a portrait of him at John, Baron Craven of Ryton. DFH 21:19, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
- "John, created by king Charles the first 21 March 1642 baron Craven of Ryton in the county of Salop, which title became extinct at his death." See [3]. So the link should be to Ryton, Shropshire. DFH 21:23, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

N.B. The various sources I consulted today had different years (1648 to 1650) for Lord Craven's death. DFH 21:34, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
