Edward George "Ted" Turner

Edward George Turner, known affectionately to his family and friends as Ted, was a kind hearted, gregarious, right jolly English gent, loved by all who knew him. He was born on the 27th of June 1911 at Blake Cottage, Horn Street in Winslow, Buckinghamshire, where his father was employed as head groom to Mr Gosling of Blake House.

    • He was one of four children, only two of whom lived past childhood. His mother died when he was 10, and his father remarried a year later. Life for the people of Cambridgeshire, mostly agricultural laboroers, was very difficult in the early 19th century. After the defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo in 1815, England was left in very poor condition. The taxes raised to cover the cost of the wars rendered the farmers too poor themselves to pay very much for labor and villagers were very poor, often to the point of starvation.There was a great deal of social unrest in Ely during Thomas's childhood. Riots all over England eventually led to the abolishment of the Income Tax, but it did little to improve the daily lives of the impovrished, down trodden peasants.
