F. J. North
Frederick John North (1889–1968) was a British geologist and museum curator.
He was a lifelong advocate and populariser of geology, and was from 1914–59 Keeper of Geology at the National Museum of Wales. He trained as a palaeontologist, specialising in fossil brachiopods; but from the 1920s, he wrote and spoke broadly about slate, coal, ironstone and limestone. He was a keen historian, cartographer, archaeologist, caver and photographer. He was a founder member of the British Association for History of Science.[1]
