Notes From Elsewhere

Thomas Turner Tate (1807–1888) was an English mathematical and scientific educator and writer. Largely self-taught, he has been described as "a remarkable pioneer of science and mathematics teaching
Born at Alnwick on 28 February 1807, he was son of Ralph Tate, a builder; his mother's maiden name was Turner, and George Tate was his brother. Initially expected to take up his father's business, he studied under an architect in Edinburgh.[2]
After his father's death, Tate changed direction from 1830. He lectured to local evening classes.[3] In 1835 he was the appointed lecturer on chemistry to the medical school in York.[2] York Medical Society was founded in 1834; the Medical School in fact was founded formally in 1838, and then lasted for about three decades
Tate was elected fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society on 14 March 1851.
