Personal life [ edit ]
Bonsall was born on 31 March 1920, the youngest son of Wilfred C Bonsall and Sarah Frank. His older brother was Arthur Bonsall .[4] He married Gillian Patrick, a Somerville graduate, in 1947.[5] Bonsall and his wife were keen hill-walkers.[6] He wrote two articles for The Scottish Mountaineering Club on the definition of a Munro . After his retirement, Bonsall and his wife moved to Harrogate.
Bonsall graduated from Bishop's Stortford College in 1938, and studied at Merton College, Oxford .[5]
He served in World War II , in the Corps of Royal Engineers , and in India from 1944 to 1946.[7]
He lectured at the University of Edinburgh from 1947 to 1948; was visiting associate professor at Oklahoma State University from 1950 to 1951; taught at Newcastle University , with Werner Wolfgang Rogosinski in the 1950s. He taught at the University of Edinburgh , from 1963 to 1984.[8] In 1963, a second chair in Mathematics was established (the Maclaurin chair). Bonsall took up the chair in 1965, but spent the following year as a visiting professor at Yale.[4] In 1966, he was awarded the London Mathematical Society 's Berwick Prize .
Despite not himself having a PhD, Bonsall supervised many PhD candidates[9] who knew him affectionately as "FFB".
