I hope no one minds if i make a single attempt to stick this back on track.

I am really trying to find anything that Rowbotham wrote about his personal life or that was written about his life by another author.

Does anyone know where Garwood got the stuff about his childhood and schooling, for instance?

Go and look at hard facts.

Check out Edinburgh University's info on him and his research on human brains.

The only place I have ever seen this mentioned is a thread on here which went on for 16 pages without any citation for this at all.
You are keen that I should look at facts, I am not certain this is one, which is really the point of my post.

Garwood gave an account of Rowbotham's childhood which she says came from him, does anyone know where this came from?

Apologies in advance if this is in the wrong place, I took some time to read through the forum headers and this seems close but maybe not quite right.

I have been doing some research into the life of Samuel Rowbotham and I am now trying to find some sources of information about Rowbotham's personal life as opposed to his lecturing career. I read Christine Garwood's book but she says a fair bit of stuff without citation and I know from my own research that she has some minor details incorrect with regard to Rowbotham's lecture tour, so I was really hoping to get more original sources. Does Rowbotham write about himself anywhere as opposed to describing experiments ? Or do any other authors write about him personally.

Thanks
