Sir Charles Lyell (1797-1875) an eminent scientist
Born at Kinnordy House, near Kirriemuir on 14th November 1797, Sir Charles Lyell is perhaps the most significant figure ever born in Angus. Within his chosen subject of geology he was hugely influential and his encouragement of Charles Darwin helped lay the groundwork for evolutionary biology. Principles of Geology The Elements of Geology , a textbook for serious students of the science, which, like The Principles he spent his life revising, keeping abreast of new developments. In 1848 he was knighted at Balmoral by Queen Victoria, riding there from Kinnordy. He made several tours of the United States, described in Travels in North America The Antiquity of Man Charles Lyell (1972), and is highly recommended. Home Your Council Services Local History ...

Human Prehistory: An Exhibition
Sir Charles Lyell (1797-1875) was a British geologist. In his Principles of Geology (3 volumes, 1830-33), Lyell conclusively showed that the earth was very old and had changed its form slowly, mainly from conditions such as erosion. Lyell was able to date the ages of rocks by using fossils embedded in the stone as time indicators. Charles Darwin made use of Lyell's data on fossils for his theory of evolution. Lyell himself had believed that the various species of plants and animals had remained unchanged since they were created. When confronted with Darwin's findings, he admitted "I now realize I have been looking down the wrong road." He became one of Darwin's strongest supporters. Lyell was born in Scotland. He studied geology at Oxford University and traveled on several geological expeditions in Europe and North America. But the first and one of the strongest supporters of Darwin's theory was Thomas Henry Huxley (1825-1895). A British anatomist and physical anthropologist, Huxley became the foremost advocate of the Darwinian theory and he was often called 'Darwin's bulldog'. In his book Evidence as to Man's Place in Nature (1863) offered proof for Darwin's thesis of natural selection. He was Professor of the Royal College of Surgeons and President of the Royal Society.

Biography of Charles Lyell
(From: Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, 1910-1911) LYELL, SIR CHARLES (1797-1875), British geologist, was the eldest son of Charles Lyell of Kinnordy, Forfarshire, and was born on the 14th of November 1797, on the family estate in Scotland. His father (1767-1849) was known both as a botanist and as the translator of the Vita Nuova and the Convito of Dante: the plant Lyellia At this time he had already begun to plan his chief work, The Principles of Geology . The subsidiary title, "An Attempt to Explain the Former Changes of the Earth's Surface by Reference to Causes now in Operation," gives the keynote of the task to which Lyell devoted his life. A journey with Murchison in 1828 gave rise to joint papers on the volcanic district of Auvergne and the Tertiary formations of Aix-en-Provence. After parting with Murchison he studied the marine remains of the Italian Tertiary Strata and then conceived the idea of dividing this geological system into three or four groups, characterized by the proportion of recent to extinct species of shells. To these groups, after consulting Dr Whewell as to the best nomenclature, he gave the names now universally adopted Eocene

Biography of Charles Robert Darwin
(From: Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, 1910-1911) DARWIN, CHARLES ROBERT (1809-1882), English naturalist, author of the Origin of Species , was born at Shrewsbury on the 12th of February 1809. He was the younger of the two sons and the fourth child of Dr Robert Waring Darwin, son of Dr Erasmus Darwin (q.v.). His mother, a daughter of Josiah Wedgwood (1730- 1795), died when Charles Darwin was eight- years old. Charles Darwin's elder brother, Erasmus Alvey (1804-1881), was interested in literature and art rather than science: on the subject of the wide difference between the brothers Charles wrote that he was "inclined to agree with Francis Galton in believing that education and environment produce only a small effect on the mind of anyone, and that most of our qualities are innate" ( Life and Letters , London, 1887, p. 22). Darwin considered that his own success was chiefly due to "the love of science, unbounded patience in long reflecting over any subject, industry in observing and collecting facts, and a fair share of invention as well as of common sense" (

    Biographical Information Occupation, Sphere of Activity Sir Charles Lyell was a geologist whose work helped to found the modern notion of geology and geologic time whilst establishing geology as a seperate science. In his first book, Principles of Geology he propounded his theory of uniformitarianism, that the Earth's history can be explained by gradual change over time. He also proposed the idea that different periods of geologic time could be established by reference fossils, he divided geologic time into four periods; Pleistoscene, Older Pliocene, Miocene and Eocene. He also expounded notions on the rock cycle, how one type of rock was transformed into another, volcanic forces, deposition and erosion. Lyell attended William Buckland's ( ) lectures on Geology in . He visited Paris in where he spent 2 months. The scientific influence of Paris was profound for Lyell. He first became aware of the depth and seriousness of French studies on natural history and geology. In Lyell was called to the bar; and from
