 Samuel George Morton Papers, American Philosophical Society
Antebellum America's foremost craniologist, Samuel George Morton (1799-1851) cast a long shadow over the history of physical anthropology and "race science." The son of Jane Cummings and the Philadelphia merchant, George Morton, Samuel was left fatherless at an early age, and was taken to Westchester County, N.Y., to be raised.
The papers of Samuel George Morton offer important insight into the development of the "American School" of physical anthropology during the infancy of the science, and insight into the conduct of natural history during its heyday in the 1830s.
Consisting of 1.5 linear feet of incoming correspondence from many of the major scientists of the period, over two thirds of the collection dates from the 1830s, when Morton was beginning his craniological investigations in earnest, and was in full stride with his work in mineralogy and paleontology.
