George Edmonds (lawyer)
George Edmonds (1788–1868) was an English teacher, lawyer, and scholar. He is principally remembered for his book ''A Universal Alphabet, Grammar, and Language''. He was also a reforming journalist and radical.
==Life==
He was the son of Edward Edmonds, the Baptist minister of the Bond Street Chapel in Birmingham, and his second wife Sarah Bromfield. He was educated by his father, and then set up a school.
In 1812 Edmonds supported Thomas Attwood's campaign against orders in council. Later in the decade he was involved in agitation over the poor law administration. In 1819 he was one of those indicted for the gesture of proposing Sir Charles Wolseley as a local representative of Birmingham, which had no Member of Parliament. In the end Edmonds spent time in Warwick Castle. In the 1830s he was active in the Birmingham Political Union.〔
Edmonds married twice, the second time at the age of 79. He died at Abington Abbey near Northampton on 1 July 1868.〔
