Does any one know how I found out when someone was ordained (C of E), would have been between 1870-1890 ish?

Thanks

Many thanks - I need years not covered by these two very useful websites.

I contacted Lambeth Palace Library and they were most helpful.

Thanks

The gentlemen I'm researching was from Cornwall, ordained by the Bishop of Exeter in 1875 and was a master at King's School Canterbury.
