Born in Ireland to a military family, Chris Barton was educated at St. Columba’s College, Dublin and Jesus College, Cambridge. Barton was a member of the Jesus College crew that won the Grand Challenge Cup at the 1947 Henley Royal Regatta and was a member of the Cambridge crew that won The Boat Race in 1948 against Oxford.

After graduating from Jesus College with a B.A. degree, Barton got interested in agriculture and after a brief stint in Australia settled in Christchurch, New Zealand in 1966.

Richard Bawden (1947-1951) bequeathed his estate to the College in his will and on his death in 2013 the College began the process of sorting the estate. Part of this process involved the Archivist sorting through all the papers from Bawden's house. The selection of papers catalogued here would not normally have been retained but for the fact Bawden was a major donor to the College and researchers in the future may be interested in his life and background. Items relating to his time immediately after leaving Jesus provide a good example of how the College dealt with students once they had left the College and how they helped them with the job application process.
