Francis Stainforth

The Reverend Francis John Stainforth (1797〔(Who Was Who in British Philately ), Association of British Philatelic Societies, 2010. Retrieved 6 June 2011.〕 – 3 September 1866〔"The Royal Philatelic Society, London. 1869 - 10 April - 1929" by Percy de Worms in ''The London Philatelist'', Vol. XXXVIII, No. 447, March 1929, pp. 52-56.〕) was an early British philatelist and the Perpetual Curate of All Hallows Staining church in London where Mount Brown compiled large parts of his catalogue. The church was believed to be the one mentioned by Charles Dickens in ''Dombey & Son''. Stainforth was a former Captain in the ''Bengal Cavalry'' before being ordained in 1830〔 and licensed 5 December 1851.〔
Philatelic sources and Stainforth's death certificate all give his forenames as ''Francis John'', however, an 1894 work by the Rev. A. Povah records his names as ''Frederick J''.〔

==Origins of The Royal Philatelic Society==
Stainforth met at the Rectory in 9 Mark Lane, which adjoined the church, on Saturday afternoons with a group of like-minded collectors to pool their knowledge. Apart from Mount Brown, these included Dr. Charles W. Viner, Henry Haslett, Frederick Philbrick, William Hughes-Hughes and Sir Daniel Cooper.〔''The Stamp Lover'', Vol. 1, No. 1, June 1908, pp. 5-6.〕 Stainforth in particular was said to have had a very fine collection which largely formed the basis for Brown's catalogue.〔Birch, Brian. ''Biographies of Philatelists and Dealers''. 9th edition. Standish, Wigan: 2008, p. 1362.〕
The group that met at the church were thought to be the most serious British collectors of the day and have been credited with being the nucleus that eventually formed ''The Philatelic Society, London'', which subsequently became the Royal Philatelic Society London, the oldest philatelic society in the world. Stainforth was never a member of the Society as he died before it was formed in 1869.〔Melville, Fred J. ''Chats on Postage Stamps''. London: T. Fisher Unwin Ltd., 1920, pp. 122-123.〕
