Hi,
I have found your post while I was looking for info on the Megicks.

Also, would it not have been very unusual for a man to be a cook?
Hi Pauline  :)

I notice that he was a college servant, according to his daughter in 1861.  The University of Oxford at that time was still limited to male students and staff, so a male cook would fit right in!  Some of the colleges have monastic origins.
