Issue 5: J.R.R. Tolkien, Baby Names, and TCK Times Statistics

Back, here's your monthly issue of The TCK Times!! Make sure to hit the subscribe button on the HOME page.

This month's famous TCK is J.R.R. Tolkien!!

J.R.R. Tolkien was born on January 3rd,1892, in Bloemfontein,South Africa. He lived in England as a child, and studied at Exeter College. He then went on to teach at Oxford College in England. During his teaching time at Oxford College, he wrote and published the famous The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy. J.R.R. Tolkien is a TCK because he was born, and is from Bloemfontein,South Africa but lived in England. He is one of the most famous TCKs, but he is not widely known as a TCK . Sadly, J.R.R. Tolkien died on September 2,1973. His children still live today!!
