Edward Turner (chemist)
Edward Turner FRS FRSE (24 June 1796–12 February 1837) was a Jamaican born, British chemist, known for his work on atomic weights, and as a populariser of the atomic theory of Dalton. He was the author of a popular Chemistry textbook that was the first to incorporate chemical symbols and formulae as well as organic chemistry.
==Life==
He was born at Teak Pen in Clarendon, Jamaica, the eldest of nine children of Dutton Smith Turner (1755-1816) and Mary Gale Redwar (1776-1822), who were themselves children of Jamaican plantation owners. While he was still young his parents took him to Bath, where he received his early education. Together with his younger brother William Dutton Turner (28 June 1798 - June 1858), he attended the University of Edinburgh Medical School where they graduated M.D. in 1819 and 1820. William returned to Jamaica as a Doctor in Spanish Town while Edward established a practice in Bath. After spending some time in Paris he decided to change from Medicine to experimental science and starting in June 1821 he studied for two years at Göttingen University under Friedrich Stromeyer, working on inorganic chemistry and mineralogy. In 1823 he returned to Edinburgh as a lecturer, where he instituted a course of lectures and laboratory sessions on chemistry; and in 1827, with the opening of University College, London, he was appointed to the new Chair of Chemistry and as a lecturer in Geology, which he continued to occupy until his death.
Turner was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of London on the 4 March 1830, and was also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. He died on 12 February 1837 at his residence at 38 Upper Gower St (renumbered to 117), now Camden, and was buried on 18 February 1837 at Kensal Green Cemetery (KGC 883/86/IR). A marble bust of him by Timothy Butler was placed in the University College by his pupils and is now in the Turner Laboratory.
He died unmarried and was buried at Kensal Green Cemetery, London.
