According to Lewis Carroll’s Diaries ( ed Edward Wakeling)
Vol 1, pgs 16-17, the family had moved from Daresbury into Croft Rectory by
February 1843 when Charles Dodgson Senior was presented to the living of Croft.
Rev Charles Dodgson ( father of Lewis Carroll) had published various essays and
sermons in pamphlet form and in The Carrollian issue 16 ( Autumn 2005) I
describe two of these that I acquired , dating from around that period . Since then
I have found two other CD senior pamphlets, shown in the pictures ; these are very
rare and hard to find. They were often bound up in volumes and then sold as
disbound items by booksellers.
