George Stevenson (editor) : ウィキペディア英語版 | George Stevenson (editor)
George Stevenson (13 April 1799 – 19 October 1856) was a pioneer South Australian newspaper editor and horticulturist.〔 〕 ==Early life== Stevenson was born at Berwick-on-Tweed, Northumberland, England the son of a gentleman farmer who died when George was 12 years old. Soon afterwards Stevenson went to sea with an uncle. Not liking the life, he returned to Great Britain and began the study of medicine, but did not last long. Stevenson next went with a brother to Canada and worked on the land, and subsequently travelled in Central America and the West Indies. Around this time he began writing for the press and contributed to the ''London Globe and Examiner''. Stevenson returned to England in 1830 and it has been stated that he collaborated with Henry Lytton Bulwer in his books on France which appeared in 1834 and 1836, but Stevenson's name is not mentioned in connection with either of these works. It is possible that he may have been employed to collect materials for them. Stevenson is reported〔 to have been joint editor of the ''London Globe'' in 1835. An obituary rather has him as a "extensive contributor". Stevenson married Margaret Gorton, of Chester, on 12 May 1836 at St George's, Hanover Square, London.〔
