Comments: Francis Galton (Nee: ) | England | 1851-1900 | Comments: This picture of Francis Galton appears at the beginning of The American Breeders Magazine, vol.1, no.2, 1910. Please see that reference for more details. There is a biographical sketch of him on pages 80,82 of that volume. He was born in 1822. He was a scientist and studied medicine --he graduated from Trinity College, Cambridge, England in 1844. He spent years in Africa. He wrote a book on meteorology. He is most famous for his writings on eugenics. That is all the information I have on this picture. I am not researching these lines, just saw the photo and thought I'd post it.
