Hi! I'm primarily a full-time conservation biology student, but I do a few hours a week of general "sales assistant" type work in the land of retail to fund feed and vet bills :lol:

René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur or Merian?Good idea to resurrect this
I trained to teach art (met my OH whilst a student and married him pretty much straight away), but worked as an artist when the kids were tiny so's I could be a stay at home Mum for a while (like Hely I had my first when I was 22 ... and my fourth when I was 31!), got into art therapy, worked in a prison for a bit and then for both a child care company and an elderly care company, all under the art therapy umbrella, started doing connected counselling work and associated training and stuff. Got fed up with all that at about the same time I hit a few health problems so started working towards a PhD, as part of which I began writing the biography of an eighteenth century entomologist ... I lost the funding for the PhD but the biography is ongoing ... biographies take a very long time to write!! And as a sideline I did voluntary work for the British Trust for Conservation Volunteers for years so I can also build a mean dry stone wall and lay a hedge properly, even got my own billhook and bowsaw!
Neither lol, mines neither French nor female ... he's an English he, and he's much later 18thC ... his work extends into the 19thC and he died in the early 1800's. Normally no one has a clue what I'm talking about ... so instead of telling you who ... any more guesses??René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur or Merian?Good idea to resurrect this

Nope ... Moses Harris is too early and John Curtis is too late, he was only a child in 1800 ... but you're getting warmer, there is a connection beyween my guy and Curtis ... but if you're looking for entomologists who were also illustrators you're on the wrong track ...John Curtis?

William SpenceClair's closest ... William Kirby was a good friend of my chap ... who to make it easier was a coleopterist (means he studied beetles for the non scientists) ... I'm being a bit mean because there are no biographies of my entomologist, that's why I'm writing one, and the ODNB and Wikipedia entries for him are inaccurate in a number of respects ... any more ideas ??
The Clergyman with whom he lived from age 10...You're really warm now ... do you know who inspired Spence to become an entomologist?
George Wheeler?The Clergyman with whom he lived from age 10...You're really warm now ... do you know who inspired Spence to become an entomologist?
Noooo, sorry ... my guy lived by far the larger part of his life in the 18thC ... he was an old man man when Doubleday was born in 1810 ... I don't know much about Doubleday, I'm an 18thC/Georgian era girl lolEdward Doubleday
