Arthur Ingram

Mixed Needs Review evidence packet

Topic: Arthur Ingram

Batch pass: AI_TOPICS_JSTOR_CHROME_HARDENING_PASS_2_2026-06-26.md.
O'Callaghan is now controlled by local JSTOR PDF OCallaghan-TalkingPoliticsTyranny-1998.pdf and extracted text OCallaghan-TalkingPolitics-1998.txt.
The article-body pass confirms that Ingram's value here is Convivium-list placement inside a broader political-literary setting, not direct Neville/Ingram evidence.

Michelle O’Callaghan’s description of the Convivium Philosophicum attendee list includes:

“Arthur Ingram”

A 2026-04-21 web audit found high-quality biographical controls for Ingram but no new direct Neville link beyond the Convivium attendee-list context. The relevant external control is the History of Parliament entry by J. P. Ferris and Simon Healy, which identifies the relevant figure as Arthur Ingram, c.1565-1642, of Fenchurch Street, later Dean's Yard, Temple Newsam, and York.

The History of Parliament identification matters here because it prevents the packet from treating Arthur Ingram as a bare name. The source places him in the Jacobean parliamentary, court, finance, and Yorkshire-landed world, but that is contextual evidence only unless a direct Neville/Ingram document is found.

Source-hardening check of O'Callaghan's PDF confirms that the Convivium list belongs within a broader discussion of Sireniac/Mermaid political conversation, parliamentary networks, and print/manuscript political culture around Christopher Brooke. Ingram should therefore remain a contextual network node unless a direct Neville/Ingram witness is found.

BRO sweep, 2026-05-30: no direct Ingram / Arthur Ingram hit was found in [local source path removed]. This leaves the packet at contextual-network level: secure identification of Ingram, but no direct Neville/Ingram document.

“Ingram, Arthur (c.1565-1642), of Fenchurch Street, London; later of Dean's Yard, Westminster, Temple Newsam and York, Yorks.”

This is a minimal starter packet preserving Arthur Ingram’s place in the attendee list for the Convivium Philosophicum.
JSTOR/PDF hardening result, 2026-06-26: O'Callaghan now has a local JSTOR PDF and extracted text sidecar for Ingram's Convivium-list context.
Web audit result: Ingram can be identified securely, but the packet should not inflate him into a Neville associate without a direct document. For now he is a contextual Convivium network node.
Source-hardening result, 2026-04-27: O'Callaghan adds network context, not direct Ingram/Neville correspondence or collaboration.
Source-control update, 2026-05-30: BRO produced no direct Ingram control. Do not use Ingram as a Neville associate beyond the Convivium/Brooke network unless a direct witness is found.
It should be expanded only when stronger Arthur Ingram material is brought into the local corpus.

The current useful fact is identity and setting, not a direct Neville relationship. History of Parliament-style controls can identify Arthur Ingram securely, and O'Callaghan gives Convivium/Sireniac network context.
No direct Ingram/Neville document surfaced in the targeted source pass. Keep Ingram as a contextual Convivium node unless a letter, account, dedication, or manuscript witness directly connects him to Neville.
