In 1907 he went to Armstrong College, also in Newcastle, which later became Newcastle University. At the time Jeffreys entered the College it was a part of Durham University. There he studied mathematics, physics, chemistry and geology, graduating in 1910 with distinction in mathematics. He went to St John's College, Cambridge after leaving Newcastle, having obtained one of four mathematics scholarships. Among his teachers at Cambridge to exert a strong influence on him were H F Baker , T J d'A Bromwich , R Webb, A Berry and E Cunningham . He became a fellow of St John's College, Cambridge in 1914 and remained a fellow all his life. Jeffreys worked in the Cavendish Laboratories on war related work from 1915 until 1917. He joined the Meteorological Office from 1917 to 1922 where he worked on hydrodynamical problems. He returned to Cambridge and he lectured there in mathematics until 1932. Jeffreys was to remain on the staff at Cambridge, but not as a mathematician. From 1932 to 1946 he taught geophysics there, then he became Plumian Professor of Astronomy.

Welcome to CWP at physics.UCLA.edu The Independent (London) December 22, 1999, Wednesday HEADLINE: OBITUARY: BERTHA JEFFREYS BYLINE: R M Williams BERTHA SWIRLES, Lady Jeffreys, did important research on quantum theory, particularly in its early days, and her association with Girton College, Cambridge, as student and Fellow, spanned more than 70 years. Born in Northampton in 1903, she was involved in the world of education from her earliest days. Her widowed mother was a primary-school teacher and various aunts were also teachers. She attended Northampton School for Girls and then went up to Girton, in 1921, to read Mathematics, graduating with first class Honours. She became a research student of R.H. Fowler, one of a distinguished company of his students which included several Nobel prizewinners such as P.A.M. Dirac and Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar. She spent the winter semester of 1927-28 in Gottingen, where she worked under Max Born and Werner Heisenberg and interacted with many of the other leading continental workers in the relatively new field of quantum mechanics; it was an exciting time. By the time she was awarded her PhD in 1929, she was already an Assistant Lecturer in Manchester. This was followed by similar appointments in Bristol and at Imperial College, London, and then in 1933 she returned to Manchester as a Lecturer in Applied Mathematics. Douglas Hartree at Manchester was extremely sorry to lose such a valued colleague when she returned to Cambridge in 1938, to an Official Fellowship and Lectureship in Mathematics at Girton.

Harold Jeffreys as a Statistician The Jeffreys prior is part of the furniture of Bayesian statistics but beyond that the work of Harold Jeffreys is little known. Jeffreys was a noted physical scientist who re-established the statistical theory of his time on Bayesian foundations. This page is a guide to literature and web-sites which may be useful to anyone interested in Jeffreys’s statistical work and its background.

(1891-1989), an established writer on physics, applied mathematics and scientific method, began applying his version of the Bayesian argument to statistics. Over the next decade or two he wrote more than 20 articles on statistics and a large book, Theory of Probability.
