According to Wikipedia, Francis Bashforth was an English Anglican priest and mathematician, who is known for his use of applied mathematics on ballistics. Early life and education Bashforth was born on 8 January 1819 in Thurnscoe, Yorkshire, England. Bashforth was the eldest son of John Bashforth, a farmer. He was educated at Doncaster Grammar School. In 1839, he matriculated into St John's College, Cambridge as a sizar. Having studied the Mathematical Tripos at the University of Cambridge, he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1843 and was the Second Wrangler. Bashforth later returned to his alma-mater to undertake a Bachelor of Divinity degree, which he completed in 1853.
