Talk: Dr Alphonse Normandy

By Debbie Radcliffe

 

Alphonse René le Mire Normandy (1809–1864), chemist and inventor, was born at Rouen. He came to England in the late 1830s, and lived and worked at 67 (now 91) Judd Street, Bloomsbury from 1850–9. Debbie Radcliffe has spent many hours researching his life and work after finding a brass nameplate to a former resident whilst renovating the front door (see Newsletter 88, January 2017).
