GREEN, ALEXANDER HENRY (18321896) , English geologist, son of the Rev.
Thomas
  Sheldon Green, master of the
Ashby
  Grammar School, was born at Maidstone on the loth of October 1832. He was educated partly at his father's school,
Ashby
 -de-la-Zouch, and afterwards at Gonville and Caius College,
Cambridge
 , where he graduated as
sixth
  wrangler in 18J5 and was elected a fellow of his college. In 1861 he joined the
Geological
  Survey of
Great
  Britain,- and surveyed large areas of the midland counties, Derbyshire and Yorkshire. He wrote (wholly or in part) memoirs on the Geology of Banbury (1864), of
Stockport
  (1866), of North Derbyshire (1869, 2nd ed. 1887), and of the Yorkshire Coal-field (1878). In 1874 he retired from the
Geological
  Survey, having been appointed professor of geology in the Yorkshire College at Leeds; in 1885 he became also professor of mathematics, while for many years he held the lectureship on geology at the school of military engineering at Chatham. He was elected F.R.S. in 1886, and two years later was chosen professor of geology in the university of
Oxford
 . His
manual
  of Physical Geology (1876, 3rd ed. 1882) is an excellent book. He died at Boar's Hill,
Oxford
 , on the 19th of August 1896.
A portrait of him, with brief memoir, was published in Proc. Yorksh. Geol. and
Polytechnic
  Soc. xiii. 232.
