A new lease of life for 71 missing Fellows

The Dictionary of National Biography: Missing Persons, edited by Christine S. Nicholls, was published on 28 January 1993 by the Oxford University Press. The volume covers the lives of 1086 individuals who were omitted from the original D.N.B. and subsequent supplements, from 1885 to 1985. In the new volume I have traced 71 Fellows of the Royal Society: one of them, John Milne, takes on a double life after being accidentally duplicated from the 1901-1930 D.N.B. volume. The following list of these ‘missing’ Fellows gives their dates, the year of their election and their occupations, as indexed in the Dictionary, representing 13 of the 27 categories supplied. For convenience, the occupations have been keyed alphabetically (letters A-M) to a table (at the end of the list) showing the names in each occupational group.
