About Natstand family documents:

A Natstand family document is intended to provide background information concerning the family of a deceased naturalist. It is hoped that such information will form a framework which will help interpret their surviving correspondence, specimens and records. In some cases it will also give an insight into the influences on their early lives and the family constraints within which they worked and collected. We have found that published family data concerning individuals rarely contain justification for dates and relationships and not infrequently contain errors which are then perpetuated. The emphasis in Natstand family documents will be on providing references to primary sources, whenever possible, which will be backed-up with transcriptions.

Although a Natstand biography page will always carry a link to a family document, in many cases these documents will be presented without any further biographical material. We anticipate that this will occur if the person is particularly well known or is someone we are actively researching or have only a peripheral interest in.

The following conventions are used:

Any persons in the family tree with known associations will be indicated in red type. Any relationships will be to the root naturalist unless otherwise stated.

Dates are presented Year – Month – Day e.g. 1820 March 9 or 1820.3.9 1820 March or 1820.3

Dates will be shown in bold type if a reliable reference is presented in the document. In cases where an exact year cannot be given (e.g. it is derived from an age at death), the date will be presented in normal type and preceded with "c" – e.g. c1798. There are some cases where a date is available from a secondary source only (e.g. a published obituary), in these cases it will be presented in italics – e.g. 1823.7.21

Data sources:

Census data have been used, whenever possible, to confirm relationships; they are not considered a reliable source of data concerning age. Contemporary newspaper family notices are considered as reliable sources of relationships and dates; reports and obituaries are treated more cautiously. Parish records generally provide a reliable source of data and digitised images have been used whenever possible. Any difficulties with transcription will be made clear. In some cases only transcripts have been available; errors here are usually confined to spelling. The most important source of this material is the International Genealogical Index compiled by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Utah. National Civil Registration Indexes are considered reliable, as are probate records.

Notes:

1 Joseph Hooker in his will of 1829 April 4, written at Glasgow, bequeaths all of his estate to his “only surviving son” William Jackson Hooker, professor of Botany, Glasgow University. His will was proved at London on 1845 September 17. The drafting of this will may have been prompted by the death of his wife at the end of January.

2 Maria's father was Dawson Turner FRS FLS (1775 – 1858), a noted botanist. Harriette Turner (c1806 – 1869.9.27), sister of Maria, married Rev. John Gunn,[palaeontologist, geologist and Rector of Irstead.

3 Her family are difficult to connect but the 1891 census of Scotland groups Thomas B Campbell (23), Isabella W Campbell (21), James L Campbell (20), Joseph D Campbell (18) and Elizabeth H Campbell (13) at 34 Burnbank Gardens, Glasgow.

4 James was declared bankrupt in 1884.

5 Birth date taken from the 1939 Register for England and Wales.

6 Walter Gardiner FRS (1859 – 1941) was a lecturer at Cambridge University.

7 This record is secure; in 1891 Ranald’s birth place is given as Inellan, Argyllshire. He is not with the rest of his siblings but is lodging in Edinburgh. He is linked to Elizabeth Helen Campbell by their choice of Gregory Campbell, engineer, as executor.

8 He was given the name Dalton after his Godfather Rev. James Dalton, MA, FLS,rRector of Croft, Yorkshire. [L&L]

9 Thomas GacGlvray served as the City Engineer of Duluth from 1897 to 1912 and 1935 to 1941.
