Malachy Hitchens
editAnyone know anything more about Rev. Malachy Hitchens?
West Briton, Jan 3 1840 "Death of Davies Gilbert Esq." - quotation:"His preliminary education was conducted at home; and at a very early age he contracted an intimacy, which continued until death, with the Rev. Malachy Hitchens, vicar of St. Hilary, a gentleman of high and well-deserved celebrity as a mathematician and astronomer, and as editor of the Nautical Almanack."
His widow, Joanne, was buried 18 July 1815 Source: Online Parish Clerk Vernon White . . . Talk 20:08, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Briefness of article
editEven for such a small settlement the information provided seems inadequate though the infobox is o.k.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 23:41, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
