BAILY, WILLIAM HELLIER (1819-1888) ,
English
  palaeontologist,
nephew
  of E. H. Baily the sculptor, was born at Bristol on the 7th of July 1819. From 1837 to 1844 he was Assistant Curator in the Bristol Museum, a
post
  he relinquished to join the staff of the
Geological
  Survey in London. In 1854 he became assistant naturalist, under
Edward
 
Forbes
  and afterwards under Huxley. In 1857 he .was transferred to the Irish branch of the
Geological
  Survey, as acting palaeontologist, and retained this
post
  until the end of his
life
 . He was the author of many papers on palaeontological subjects, and of notes on fossils in the explanatory memoirs of the Geological Survey of Ireland. He published (1867-1875) a useful
work
  entitled Figures of Characteristic British Fossils, with Descriptive Remarks, of which only the first volume, dealing with palaeozoic species, was issued. The figures were all
drawn
  on stone by himself. He died at Rathmines near Dublin on the 6th of August 1888.
