George John Stevenson : ウィキペディア英語版 | George John Stevenson George John Stevenson (1818–1888) was an English bookseller, headmaster, author and hymnologist. ==Life== Born in Chesterfield on 7 July 1818, he was the son of John George Stevenson (1792–1866) of Chesterfield, by his wife Jane, daughter of John Aldred. He was educated at Duttoris grammar school, Chesterfield, and from an early age until 1844 he was employed in the printing and bookselling business. In 1844 Stevenson entered St. John's College, Battersea, to be trained for an organising mastership under the National Society. In 1846 a reformatory school was established in the Philanthropic Institute, Southwark, to take selected criminals from prisons, and Stevenson was appointed its first headmaster. In 1848 he became headmaster of the endowed parochial school at Lambeth Green.〔 Stevenson resigned his post in 1855, and established himself in Paternoster Row as a bookseller and publisher, a business which he continued until a few years before his death. From 1861 to 1867 he was editor and proprietor of the ''Wesleyan Times'', and in 1882 he edited the ''Union Review''. He died on 16 August 1888.〔
