If you had bothered to turn the page on a web search for george stephenson, you would have found a link for THE LIFE OF GEORGE STEPHENSON .Hopefully by reading this data you will have learned something in spite of your short order research. Be sure to give the credit for the work of your elemental project to Blue Yonder. Try to appreciate the benefit of having the opportunity of a decent educational system(as you start this school year) and all your accessible resources. There are many in this world who have not.

6. He had a son named Robert Stephenson, so he must have had a wife but I can't find any info about his wife...I do know he had a father who was a fireman of the colliery pumping-engiene.

i have judged some technology festivals. the outcomes section consists of your elementary effects - what were you attempting out? What became the end result? What are you able to finish? How would your attempt were inspired by technique of a few thing outside the attempt - have you ever protected controls? The 'next time' section would contain any advancements you could make so that you're literally not being biased, some thing else appropriate that you opt to attempt, the way you would substitute your technique/kit.
