Joseph Hutchins.
Hutchins was educated at Atherstone Grammar School and Pembroke College, Cambridge.[3] After curacies at Wirksworth and Ireton he was elected a Fellow of Pembroke.
Hutchins became the first and only Anglican Archdeacon of Van Diemen's Land, a position offered him in 1836 by William Grant Broughton, bishop of Australia.[1]
Hutchins was a supporter of education through the Church, and because of this The Hutchins School, established in 1846 in Hobart, was named in his honour.[1] The school continues to operate as at 2020.
