I’d like to introduce…

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.

And His Lovely Wife…

    • From "the privileged tradesmen of Oxford" page on the Headington, Oxford Family History web page:

      "By far the greatest number were tonsores, or barbers. Members of the Company of Barbers (which had been incorporated by the Chancellor of the University as early as 1348 and existed until 1859) dined once a year with the Vice-Chancellor and supped annually with the Proctors. Their duties would include shaving as well as cutting hair, and some of them would also have been phlebotomists and dentists.

      With the status of "privileged person", a matriculated tradesman would have been exempt in certain respects from the jurisdiction of the town, so in any disputes the townsmen had to sue a "privileged person" in the Vice-Chancellor’s Court. Many of the University privileges appear to have been an entitlement to avoid payment to or control by the city.

      Because Privilegiati had to be matriculated by the University, many of them are listed in Alumni Oxonienses. They had to swear an oath of allegiance to the monarchy and to the established church
