WHITEAVES, JOSEPH FREDERICK (1835 )

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: WAT-WIL
WHITEAVES, JOSEPH FREDERICK (1835 ) , British palaeontologist, was born at
Oxford
 , on the 26th of December 1835. He was educated at private schools, and afterwards worked under John Phillips at
Oxford
  (18581861); he was led to study the Oolitic rocks, and added largely to our knowledge of the fossils of the
Great
  Oolite
series
 , Cornbrash and
Corallian
  (Rep. Brit. Assoc. 186o, and Ann., Nat. Hist. 1861). In 1861 he visited Canada and made acquaintance with the geology of Quebec and Montreal, and in 1863 he was appointed curator of the museum and secretary of the Natural History Society of Montreal, posts which he occupied until 1875. He studied the land and
freshwater
  mollusca of Lower Canada, and the marine invertebrata of the coasts; and also carried on researches among the older
Silurian
  (or Ordovician) fossils of the neighbourhood of Montreal. In 1875 he joined the palaeontological branch of the
Geological
  Survey of Canada at Montreal; in the following year he became palaeontologist, and in 1877 he was further appointed zoologist and assistant director of the survey. In 1881 the offices of the survey were removed to Ottawa. His publications on Canadian
zoology
  and palaeontology are numerous and important. Dr Whiteaves was one of the
original
  fellows of the Royal Society of Canada, and contributed to its Transactions, as well as to the Canadian Naturalist and other
journals
 . He received the hon. degree of LL. D. in 1900 from McGill University, Montreal.
