William Smith (geolog)
<s>Vilijam Smit (; Čerčil, 23. mart 1769. – Northempton, 28. avgust 1839) je bio engleski geolog, zaslužan za stvaranje prve nacionalne geološke karte.</s><s>Iako poznat kao „otac engleske geologije“, proces priznavanja njegovog dela tekao je prilično sporo.</s><s>Drugi su prisvajali njegov rad, on je bio finansijski uništen, pa je proveo i neko vreme u zatvoru.</s><s>Tek mnogo kasnije Smitu su priznate zasluge za dostignuća u oblasti geologije.</s>
