Summary: | Oliver Chase Quick was born in the vicarage at Sedbergh – then in the West
Riding of Yorkshire, now in Cumbria – on 21 June 1885.2 His father was Robert
Hebert Quick (1831-91),3 trained in mathematics and the classics, who became
an educationist with special interests in the training of secondary school teachers
and the practical application of educational ideas. R. H. Quick served two brief
curacies and taught in a number of schools, including Harrow and Cranleigh.4
He was not of robust health, hence his acceptance of the living at Sedbergh
in 1883. Sadly, the duties of the ministry drained him and he resigned in January
1887. In 1876 he had married Harriet Bertha, daughter of General Chase Parr of
the Indian army. As well as Oliver, they had a daughter, Dora. |
