Notes From Elsewhere
Edward Bernard Tawney (1840 - 1882) was employed at the Woodwardian Museum (the pre-1904 forerunner of the Sedgwick Museum) between 1878 and 1882. He was recruited by the then Woodwardian Professor of Geology, Thomas McKenny Hughes (1832 - 1917). Tawney had previously been employed by the University of Bristol where he lectured and curated collections in the Museum there
Sadly, due to ill health, Tawney's promising career was cut all too short. He travelled to the south of France in December 1882 "for the good of his health "and died there shortly afterwards
