The Life And Ministry Of George Tustin
George Tustin was born at Hook Norton, in Oxfordshire, in 1802. He was the son of poor, but pious, parents. Early in his boyhood his parents removed to Middleton Cheney, in Northamptonshire, where they continued to reside till they were called away, at a ripe old age, to enter upon that eternal rest which is found only beyond the grave.
