Edmund Neison was born in Beverley, Yorkshire, England in 1849 August 27, and was educated at Harrow in New College, Oxford. His real name was Edmund Neville Neison Nevill, but chose to call himself Edmund Neison because he felt that the holder of an ancient name should not make a career in science. In 1894 he married Mabel Grant and together they had three children. His book, <em>[https://the-moon.us/wiki/Neison%2C_1876 The Moon]</em>, appeared in 1876 and for observations he made use of a 6-inch refractor and a 9 ½ inch [http://www.sjaa.net/eph/0105/b.html With-Browning reflector]. He was a founding member of the [http://www.lindahall.org/events_exhib/exhibit/exhibits/moon/p24.htm Selenographical Society], but resigned as secretary in 1883 because he left England for South Africa. When he returned to England he retired to Eastbourne and was awarded the Medal of the Chemical Society in 1935. He died on January 14th 1940. Neison was extremely camera shy and there no photographs of him that I know of, apart from the one above, given to Sir Patrick Moore by Neison’s daughter, Miss Maud Nevill. The image shows Edmund and his wife Mabel.<br /><br />
