Tomkyns Hilgrove Turner

General Sir (Tomkyns) Hilgrove Turner GCH (1764–1843) is best known as the officer who escorted the Rosetta Stone from Egypt to England.
==Military career==
Turner and the Stone were on board the recently captured French ship HMS Egyptienne when it made its way to England. He claimed that he had personally seized the Stone from General Jacques-François Menou and carried it away on a gun carriage. He also asserted that when the French learned of his intentions, that they removed the packaging for the Stone and that "it was thrown upon its face".〔Parkinson, Richard. The Rosetta Stone: British Museum Objects in Focus. p.29. The British Museum Press. 2005. 978-0-7141-5021-5〕 There are other versions of how the English forces captured the Stone from the French, so it is unknown how reliable his account is. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in December 1804.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Library and Archive Catalogue )
He would later become Lieutenant Governor of Jersey from 1814 to 1816〔(Government House History )〕 and Governor of Bermuda from 1826 to 1832,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=thePeerage.com: Person Page – 43314 )〕 and in 1827 became a Knight Grand Cross of the Royal Guelphic Order.
