If you're a member of the Maritime Museum, please come to my talk tomorrow night, at 6.30pm, on the life of Eleanor Anne Porden! She's done much more than *just* being married to John Franklin - she was an acclaimed poet and fascinating person. Hope to see you there! www.rmg.co.uk/whats-on/nat...
Members' Lecture: Eleanor Anne Porden
Uncover the often-forgotten life of John Franklin's first wife, Eleanor Anne Porden, with author Sam Pope
