Ramsden Reef: (www.paradisedivers.com.au/sites/rams.htm) The wreck of the Eliza Ramsden has been a favourite of divers for a number of decades. However because of its location, and the navigational skill required to find it, many divers have been disappointed and failed to find it. This has resulted in considerable diving being done around the wreck, and fortunately the location of some magnificent reef areas - hence the name Ramsden Reef. For details see Ramsden Reef.

Israel:

Marc Horowitz-Ramsden (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Ramsden) (October 3, 1971 - ) is a Special Ops member of the famed Golani Brigade of Israel, credited with the saving of three young Palestinian children caught in the cross fire of a battle in the West Bank camp of Jenin. The heroic acts of 1st Lt. Horowitz-Ramsden were cited in a document as follows:
On the day December 24, 2000 1st. Lt. Horowitz-Ramsden a member of the Golani Brigade Reserve was conducting house to house searchs in the camp of Jenin. While the mission was being conducted the Golani came under attack from roof tops and on the street level. Under the command of Col. Eli Katz the unit began a defensive retreat. Three Golani unit members including Col.Katz were killed by an RPG while retreating to a strong position. The battle that insued was complicated by heavy fog common in the Jordan Valley in the winter making air cover difficult. The battle intensified as the militants chased the Golani unit among the narrow streets. At the main junction of the city the Golani became pinned down and were unable to continue a defensive retreat. It was at this time that a number of Palestians got involved in the cross fire. Most were able to escape the battle but three children under the age of 10 were getting shelter behind a disabled taxi car. The militants were firing at the taxi most likely believing that the Israeli troops were behind it. At this time 1stLt. Horowitz-Ramsden attempted to inform the militants that it was children behind the taxi but to no avail. The battle continued and one of the chilren was obviously injured by gun fire and bleeding profusely. It is at this point that 1stLt. Horowitz-Ramsden took off his gear bag tossed 2 or 3 smoke grenades and dashed towards the taxi under intense fire. He reached the children and picked up the injured child and took the hands of and other and dashed to safety. While running across the open area one other child was injured as well as 1stLt Horowitz-Ramsden from shrapnel of a fragmentary grenade. All three children and 1stLt Horowitz-Ramsden survived the injuries.

George Eric Oakes Ramsden: An abbreviated life story written by his daughter Irihapeti Ramsden is described in the thesis for her Doctorate of Philosophy 2002 as detailed in http://culturalsafety.massey.ac.nz/ChapterTwo.htm At age fourteen, Eric left life in the country eventually becoming an apprentice journalist. Highly competent and very ambitious he worked on several newspapers in New Zealand before becoming a sub-editor on the Sydney Morning Herald. He married the daughter of the Australian Minister of Mines and attended university focusing on anthropology and Pacific history.
Returning to Auckland in 1927, Eric become aware of New Zealand history and the formation of New Zealand identity led Eric to write the biographies of James Busby (E. Ramsden, 1942) and Samuel Marsden (E. Ramsden, 1936) involving the lives of other missionaries and their association with Maori. Although crammed with fact, these histories are not analytical of the race relations of the period. This work led him to become one of the few contemporary authorities on the Treaty of Waitangi between 1930 and 1960. As one of the few pakeha who had intimate access to Maori politics, spoke Maori and also moved in privileged and powerful government circles, Eric occupied an interesting and influential place in the New Zealand society of his day.

Henry Oakes Penlington-Ramsden: (http://culturalsafety.massey.ac.nz/ChapterTwo.htm) father of Eric, and grand-father of Irihapeti Ramsden is described in the thesis for her Doctorate of Philosophy 2002. An English emigrant to New Zealand in the 1860s, Henry brought a set of Encyclopaedia Britannica with him and, according to Eric, father and son spent long hours drinking remedial sherry and port in order to avert tuberculosis and asthma while also imbibing the worthy encyclopaedia. From his father Eric certainly learned the values and ideologies of the English upper classes which he could not readily express in his daily life on the farm in Martinborough, Wairarapa, near Wellington.

Irihapeti Merenia Ramsden (Dr.) 24 February 1946 – 5 April 2003. Research School of Public Health, Massey University, Wellington. Irihapeti trained as a registered general and obstetric nurse at Wellington Hospital. She worked in a range of areas including general nursing, respiratory medicine and public health before moving into nursing education. She is perhaps best known in Aotearoa and internationally for the development of Cultural Safety – an educational framework for the analysis of power relationships between health professionals and those they serve. Cultural Safety has been part of the New Zealand nursing and midwifery curriculum since 1992 and comprises 20% of the state registration examination for all nurses and midwives. Irihapeti negotiated the foundations for developing a process of ownership of the Cultural Safety curriculum between Otago Polytechnic and Ngai Tahupotiki iwi, an early example of exercising intellectual property rights. The International Council of Nurses, the oldest and largest international professional organization in the health field, representing nurses and nursing in 118 countries, recommended in 1995 that Cultural Safety be included in the education programmes of all national nurses associations.
Irihapeti Ramsden, who belonged to the people of Ngai Tahupotiki and Rangitane. Her doctorate, Cultural Safety and Nursing Education in Aotearoa and Te Waipounamu, was completed just months prior to her death in April of 2003.
(This was the daughter of Eric Ramsden of New Zealand History fame as listed above.)

This book from the Cumbrian Railways Association tells of how a small farming community in an isolated part of the country turned, within a few decades, into a major seaport and industrial town. Much of impetus for this change came from the small, local, Furness Railway under James Ramsden who pushed the railway and its directors to devlop a port, major iron and steel works and what would become a major shipbuilding yard, making the railway one of the most profitable in the land. An intriguing story brought right up-to-date with a review of the current railway scene in Barrow. 104 well illustrated pages. Paperback.

Apparently, only two people have more Australian streets, suburbs and parks named after them [than Churchill]—Monash and Bradman. Contrary to myth, Churchill turned down many invitations to visit Australia as he was too frail to make the journey. Moreover, the Australian press carried stories on him for sixteen days after his funeral and Australia raised £2.3m towards the Churchill Memorial Fellowships, which was more than any other country did including Britain itself.

Ramsden (Major-General): (http://www.usswashington.com/dl05au42.htm) Mention of Winston Churchill in Cairo in early August 1942 looking to axe General Ramsden (amongst others) from command in the Mid-East.
As detailed on (http://www.usswashington.com/dl05jl42.htm)
July 5th, 1942... The First Battle for El Alamein rages on, with the Afrika Korps down to 36 tanks. Gen. Sir Claude Auchinlek, head of the 8th Army, relieves the tired General Norrie, boss of 30 Corps, who needs a rest. General Ramsden of 50th Northumbrian Division takes over. The corps, busy with the folderol of changing commands, performs sluggishly for the next two days, as does the whole of the tired 8th Army.

Ramsden Building: (http://www.hud.ac.uk/hhs/general/ramsden.htm) University of Huddersfield. About half the School's staff have accommodation in the Ramsden Building, the oldest building on campus.

Many of the best architectural features of the Gothic style building, such as the staircase in the entrance hall (also pictured below), have been preserved.

Ramsden – George (64), Hannah (56), Thomas (21), Theodore (19), Mitchell (14) - listed in the 1861 census for Roundhay Township in Barwick, UK. (http://homepage.ntlworld.com/nev.hurworth/1861CensusRhay.htm). All were residing in the School House, as Thomas was the school master, and all were born in Yorkshire. They also had a granddaughter Clara Herrington (3) with them, born in Skipton Yorkshire, more than likely the daughter of Thomas, but what became of her mother, or why she wasn't living there at the time, is not indicated in this document.
Interestingly, this was the era of chronic hardships, before medicines of anesthetics and penicillin, before basic sciences of accurate timekeeping, electricity production, hygiene knowledge, sanitation, sewage, piped fresh water, and refrigeration. What was life really like for these Ramsdens in 1861 England? A diary would help immensely!
This family was not present in the previous 1851 nor the next 1871 census. This doesn't mean they weren't there, just that they weren't included in the census, for whatever reason. Or perhaps they simply moved on.

Ramsden Observatory: (www.lpl.arizona.edu/~schaller/JC/) A descriptive page locating and describing the history and function of the Ramsden Observatory in Sinus Medii on the Moon's sub-terrestrial point. Interestingly, the sub-terrestrial point is that location on another celestial body at which, at a given particular time, you would see the Earth positioned directly overhead if you were to stand there at that given time. To find the sub-terrestrial point on a planet, connect an imaginary line between the centres of mass of the Earth and the other planet. The sub-terrestrial point is the point on the other planet's surface where that line intersects. (Similarly, the sub-solar point is the point on the Earth directly beneath the sun. The sub-lunar point is directly beneath the Moon. And so on.)

Ramsden v. Farm Credit Services of North Central Wisconsin ACA, 590 N.W.2d 1 (Wis. App. 1998). (http://www.flaginc.com/cases/cases1999-3.htm) Farmers Legal Action Group archives for 1999, Vol 14, Issue 3: Farmers purchased a farm from Farm Credit Services (FCS). The farmers were told by the auctioneer--who was also an employee of FCS--that the farm had had an underground tank leak, that this was being cleaned up by FCS, and that the farm was suitable for use as a dairy farm and had plenty of good water for cows. Soon after the farmers moved onto the farm, their dairy cows began getting sick and dying and one farmer became ill. The farmers then discovered that the previous owners of the farm had also had similar problems with their cows caused by benzene contamination from the leaking tank. The farmers sued FCS and the employee for damages resulting from the contamination. The trial court dismissed the claims against the employee, holding that as an agent of FCS he could not be held liable in this case. The Wisconsin Court of Appeals reversed, holding that the employee could be held liable for untrue statements and failure to disclose material facts because he had assumed a duty by making initial factual statements about the contamination.
