Administrative / Biographical History

The early history of Council appears to begin with a body referred to as "Master and Fellows in College" (c. 1762-1926) and is then succeeded by the "Master and Senior Fellows" (1860-1898) with occasional references to "Masters and Fellows in residence" before finally becoming the Council from 1898; there is some overlap with the history of the Governing Body and some minutes of Council may be found in those volumes with the earliest surviving minutes of Council for 1858-1887 in a volume of mainly Governing Body minutes (CCGB/2/1/6).
