1861 — Head teacher of the National School, Allfarthing Lane
Presumably this is part of today's Allfarthing School living with his wife Christiana, son ?, and niece ?Query: our JC, born Cambridge, is said in some Ancestry trees to have been baptised St Anne's Wandsworth in 1837. Yet I have only found refs to Cambridge.
.The 1841 census for Barrington, Cambs, shows a number of Condors — note the O — clearly a local name — gardeners or agricultural labourers — so was JC a man of the people risen in the world? His father appears in the 1830s to have been a wheelwright in Cambridge — with the vote! So he was probably in reasonable way of business.
[Ancestry: Link]
Random unsorted notes from a RootsChat interchange [year?]
May himself have been a missionary (in Uruguay)? Probably not — somewhere I've seen something that suggests he was ministering to the British/ English-speaking community. Did some of his many children became missionaries?

John CONDER, Cambridge 3b, 787
Christiana READ, Cambridge 3b, 78
John CONDER was a school master and a minister.
They lived at a National School at St Anne's in Wandsworth London in 1861 where John was a schoolmaster, in 1871 were at 21 & 23 Park Road Battersea (converted into one house) when John was a Royal College Preceptor [meaning?], and in 1881 John was a Rector at Wendy in Cambridgeshire.
The College of Preceptors and the Educational Times: Changes for British mathematics education in the mid-nineteenth century
Founded in Britain in 1846 to standardize the teaching profession, the College of Preceptors is little known today. The College was closely linked to the Educational Times (hereafter ET), a journal of "Education, Science and Literature" launched in 1847. This paper examines in detail a sample of College examinations, articles on mathematics education, and reviews of mathematics textbooks that appeared in the ET.
Key figures in the mathematical discussion were William Whewell, Augustus De Morgan, and Thomas Tate. The paper shows how the discourse on mathematics education led to the introduction of entrance examinations for Oxford and Cambridge Universities.

Mmm, notice focus on maths — which Halbrake School was strong at. In fact — everything fits — Kay-Shuttleworth — Moseley et al
BTW who was Augustus De Morgan — any relation to the artist? Yes, father of ]
[Wikipedia: Augustus De Morgan]
https://www.google.com/search?q=Augustus+De+Morgan&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-bTwo baptisms of children in 1864 and 1866 have them at Halbrake House at New Wandsworth/Battersea, so I think that the location in 1861 and 1871 will be the same and it will be Halbrake School aka College.

[PB: Check 1881]
There were not many pupils with John in the 1871 census, just 14, but maybe not all the students were boarding at the one place. He had two assistant masters and 6 servants in the household which seems like overkill for just 14 students and his family (5 children at that stage, had 9 altogether). Not sure.

The Metamophosis of Battersea, 1800-1914, a Building History
Ph.D Thesis, The Open University, by K.A. Bailey (1995)
"Private education was still available in Battersea during the School Board era, including the long-established Sir Walter St. John's and Battersea Grammar Schools, but affected only a tiny proportion of children. Local directories for 1891/2 list 26 "schools", located in ordinary dwelling houses, mostly small terraced properties. Only two of them were run by men — Thomas Montelli's preparatory school at 43 Bennerley Road and the Rev.J.Parr's Halbrake School at 21/3 Park Road, New Wandsworth. The rest were run by women, virtually all spinsters. Ten were for "ladies", two for "girls" and four were "preparatory".
Sixteen of these establishments were located in or to the south of Lavender Hill-St. Johns Hill, and none in the typically working-class streets of north Battersea except Miss E. Adams' ladies' school (54 Cabul Road) and Mrs. Mary Hannington's (114 New Road). It is unlikely that these schools accommodated more than 20-30 pupils on average, providing in total less than half of one typical board school."
The details given for the family of Jonah & Elizabeth READ earlier in this thread don't quite gel.
1841 census has (probable) issue Matthew 15, William 9, Alfred 4, Christiana 2 and Frederic 7 weeks. Can't be 100% sure with relationships not given in 1841.
1851 census has Susan 21, Christiana 12, and Fredrick 10, as definite children.
The list given earlier in the thread doesn't mention Susan or Matthew (who can't be the one died 1826). There is no sign in 1841 census or 1851 census of these issue from that list, Amelia, Harriet, Emma and George.
Unless there were multiple burials and kids coming and going from the family at census time, The list of issue given earlier in the thread doesn't gel properly with the lists in census information.
Early days yet, maybe I haven't been at this long enough to sort it out, but those lists need to be reconciled with each other. I haven't had a go at OPR data yet.
Christiana's son Eric CONDER married Eliza Louisa (Louisa) RUMBLE in 1901, part of a complicated set of marriages. When Louisa died, Eric remarried 1917 to her sister Ann Ellen RUMBLE who had previously been married 1901 to Robert Stephen LOVE who had previously been married 1880 to Fanny POWIS.
Eric & Louisa's children:
Daughter Florence emigrated to New Zealand where she married 1924 Basil William CHISNALL. Her sister Kathleen married Harold BOSTON 1927 at Acton and they also went to New Zealand. Sister Vera married Laurence PORTCH. Sister Ethel Margarita married her first cousin, Frederick Charles LOVE, who was the son of Robert & Ann. I don't know what happened to sister Madeline.

Fray Bentos Industrial Landscape
Located on land projecting into the Uruguay River west of the town of Fray Bentos, the industrial complex was built following the development of a factory founded in 1859 to process meat produced on the vast prairies nearby. The site illustrates the whole process of meat sourcing, processing, packing and dispatching. It includes buildings and equipment of the Liebig Extract of Meat Company, which exported meat extract and corned-beef to the European market from 1865 and the Anglo Meat Packing Plant, which exported frozen meat from 1924. Through its physical location, industrial and residential buildings as well as social institutions, the site presents an illustration of the entire process of meat production on a global scale.

conder-john-headstone-058146.jpg
The Mulhalls in their Handbook of the River Plate add some details about John Conder: "The view of the river Uruguay from any of the hills in and around Fray Bentos is exceedingly pretty. The shops here are very good, and commodities of all kinds kept in supply. There are nearly 100 English residents.... There is an English chapel with an excellent parsonage, originally built for a college; here resides the Rev. John Conder, LL.D. (Late Rector of Wendy, Cambs), who has also the supervision of the English congregations through Bando Oriental (Montevideo excepted), and to him application should be made when the services of the Church are required. The Protestants possess a cemetery well laid out and kept, the gift of Mr. James Lowry of Montevideo" (1885 ed., pp. 607-08; odd that Conder died the same year he appeared in the pages of the Handbook).

Query: Given his name and Cambridge connections, was our John Conder a descendant of John Conder (1714-1781), the renowned congregationalist minister and theologian? It certainly seems possible.
