  1. John Baird Simpson

    Orphan date November 2010 John Baird Simpson January 14, 1894 &ndash June 28, 1960 , was a Scottish geologist. Simpson was born at Glenferness, Ardclach , Nairnshire , Scotland. After schooling at Nairn Academy, he went to the University of Aberdeen, where he graduated with a BSc in Agriculture, in 1914. He joined the Royal Engineers that same year, and was then commissioned in the Gordon Highlanders . He was wounded, and badly gassed, during active service in France. He returned to civil life in 1918, and resumed his studies at the University of Aberdeen later that year, graduating in 1920 with a degree in Pure Science, with special distinction in Geology. Later in 1920, he was appointed to the field staff of the Geological Survey in Scotland. He was promoted to Senior Geologist in 1932, and to District Geologist in 1945. He retired in 1954. His work with the Survey fell into two broad categories. He carried out a lot of the early earliest mapping of the Western Highlands and Islands of Scotland, including the Lewisian complex Lewisian of Coll and Tiree , the Mesozoic sediments and Tertiary lavas of Morvern and Ardnamurchan , and the Moine Schists of Ardnamurchan, Sunart and South Morar. Some of his most important work concerned the Scottish Coalfields and their associated rocks, in Ayrshire, Dumfriesshire, Dumbartonshire, Lanarkshire and Midlothian , leading to significant upward revisions to reserves estimates. He mapped superficial deposits, in particular the boulder clays of Ayrshire, which led to new time correlations of glacial events in Scotland and Scandinavia. Some of this work was submitted to the University of Aberdeen for the degree of DSc, which was conferred on him in 1933. The other aspect of his work built on his early agricultural and botanical training ... Persondata Metadata see Wikipedia Persondata . NAME Simpson, John Baird ALTERNATIVE NAMES SHORT ...
