2 unusual facts about Nicholas Quemerford


Nicholas Quemerford

Repairing to the University of Louvain, he was promoted to the degree of DD on 23 June or October 1575, on which occasion his fellow-countryman, Peter Lombard, who that year was "primus in schola artium", wrote "Carmen Heroicum in Doctoratum Nicolai Quemerfordi".

He was born in the city of Waterford in Ireland about 1544, and took the degree of BA at Oxford in 1562, after he had spent at least four years in that university in pecking and hewing at logic and philosophy.
