Samuel Galton Jr.

[3] He also built a house at Warley Woods, and commissioned Humphry Repton to lay out its grounds.

[6] He married Violetta Darwin in 1807 and had a son named Francis Galton (1822–1911) who would go on to be a famous proponent of eugenics.

[10] Galton would join the Lunar Society as an in-person replacement for Erasmus Darwin, who remarried and moved away.

[11] One reason for his inclusion into the Society was his love for statistics and data and his tendency to compare datasets.

[12] Galton also had a great love for natural history, one of the subjects taught in Quaker schools.

[13] Galton would have one more book project intended for younger audiences, and in 1801, The Natural History of Quadrupeds; including all the Linnaean class of mammalia...For the instruction of young persons was published.

[15] This was for commercial reasons though, as Galton put those before scientific ones more times than not, leading to not many of his contributions being well known or published.

[15] His family, many of which were members of the society, are remembered by the Moonstones in Birmingham and a tower block in the center of that city.
