Together with Richard Norris Wolfenden, founded the Challenger Society for Marine Science in 1903 and served as its Secretary until 1910; oceanography occupied less of his time thereafter and in the last 30 years of his life, he became interested in local history and its sources, establishing himself as an archivist and medieval historian; he also established the Bedfordshire Historical Record Society in 1912)
