The image previously on the page attributed as "John Hopkinson" is in fact his brother, Edward Hopkinson as may be seen by careful reading of http://www.zipworld.com.au/~lnbdds/Boschi/electricalmach.htm http://www.zipworld.com.au/~lnbdds/Boschi/electricalmach.htm

Note: Google turns up a different image attributed to John Hopkinson on other websites, but that picture is of Charles Parsons, who can be seen at http://www-g.eng.cam.ac.uk/125/1875-1900/parsons.html This latter image is clearly not John Hopkinson, who reached the age of only 49 before his accidental death, and the pictured man looks much older.

This page was redesigned at the edge.

A page that knows where it met you.
