Elizabeth Charlotte Eyton (September 1838 – 6 June 1917)[1] was a British amateur geologist who published a number of articles on the geology of North Shropshire and the Wrekin from 1862 to 1870.
[5] This volume was published by Wellington bookseller Robert Hobson,[6] and printed by London printers Houlston and Wright.
[7] Eyton dedicated this book to William Symonds,[8] a curate, geologist and natural historian who had written a number of essays on the geology of the nearby Malvern Hills.
[9] Following the publication of this book, Eyton published two technical journal articles in the Geological Magazine on the Pleistocene-age shell-bearing gravels and blue clay deposits of Shropshire.
[12] In 1868, Eyton published a short pamphlet, Hymns of Praise and Prayer, with profits intended to be used for the relief of the distress in the East End of London, following the 1866 cholera outbreak.
