Florence Bell edit

His wife Florence is variously described as a "cousin" or "niece", she was born in 1869 in Surbiton in Surrey the daughter of James Bell (a Solicitor) and Catherine Annie Lister. Her father James Bell was born in 1825 in Uppingham, Rutland the son of John Bell (1796) and Catherine Webb (1806). Just needs a bit more research to find the connection <!> MilborneOne (talk) 18:37, 28 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

I found another possible clarification in the Plarr's Lives of the Fellows Online. In the 1936 article it states that he was elected a fellow in 1928, but in Plarrs it is 1929. It is possible the Plaars bio has been fact checked against the, that are mostly obits, or properly fact checked against the archives. scope_creep (talk) 19:51, 28 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
