	Weldon House
		Weldon served two terms as Mayor from 1977 to 1982 and was nominated for election on both the Republican and Democratic tickets.
		Weldon was born Franklin Birkinshaw in Alvechurch, Worcestershire, England to a literary family, with both her maternal grandfather, Edgar Jepson (1863-1938), and her own mother Margaret writing novels (the latter under the nom de plume Pearl Bellairs, after a character from Huxley's 1922 novel ''Crome Yellow'').
		Weldon spent the first years of her life in Auckland, New Zealand, where her father worked as a doctor, but at the age of 14, after her parents' divorce, moved to England with her mother and her sister Jane, never to see her father again.

	Walter Weldon - LoveToKnow 1911
		WALTER WELDON (1832-1885), English technical chemist, was born at Loughborough on the 31st of October 1832.
		Though he was without practical knowledge of the science, Weldon turned to industrial chemistry, and in the course of a few years took out the patents which led to his "manganese-regeneration" process (see Chlorine).
		His SOD, Walter Frank Raphael Weldon (1860-1906), was appointed in 1899 Linacre professor of comparative anatomy at Oxford.

	Walter Frank Raphael Weldon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Walter Frank Raphael Weldon (15 March 1860 — 13 April 1906) was an English evolutionary zoologist and biometrician.
		Weldon was the second child of the journalist and industrial chemist, Walter Weldon, and his wife Anne Cotton.
		The debate lost much of its intensity with the death of Weldon in 1906, though the general debate between the biometricians and the Mendelians continued until the creation of the modern evolutionary synthesis in the 1930s.

	Weldon biography
		Walter was a journalist and chemist, and he moved around the country so frequently that it was not possible for Raphael to attend school until he reached thirteen years of age.
		Walter and Anne had three children; their first child was a girl, with Raphael born next followed by his younger brother Dante.
		Weldon was appointed to a chair in Oxford in 1900 and he held this post until his death in 1906.

		Walter and Anne had three children; their first child was a girl, with Raphael born followed by his younger brother Dante.

		Galton's concern to develop a mathematical theory for the analysis of variation and the transmission of inheritance was inspirational on the work of Bateson's one-time Cambridge mentor, Walter Frank Raphael Weldon (1860—1906), professor of zoology at University College London (1891—99) and later professor at Oxford University (1900—06).
		Initially Weldon was in agreement with Galton's conclusion that the effects of natural selection were generally insignificant (Weldon 1890).
		Through his friendship with Weldon, the mathematical analysis of variation in relation to evolution took on a new dimension and led to a major theoretical clash with the discontinuist theory of Bateson and DeVries.

		Weldon introduced Pearson to Charles Darwin's cousin Francis Galton, who was interested in aspects of evolution such as heredity and eugenics.

		In 1900, Mendelian inheritance was "rediscovered", and was initially seen as supporting a form of "jumping" evolution.
		The biometric school, led by Karl Pearson and Walter Frank Raphael Weldon, argued against it vigorously, stating empirical evidence indicated that variation was continuous in most organisms.
		The Mendelian school, led by William Bateson, countered that in some cases the Mendelian evidence was indisputable and that future work would reveal its larger truth.

	PALEAUTONOMY.COM: Evolution
		When Gregor Mendel's work on the nature of inheritance in the late 19th century was "rediscovered" in 1900, it was interpreted as supporting an anti-Darwinian "jumping" form of evolution.
		The convinced Mendelians (William Bateson and Charles Benedict Davenport) and biometricians (Walter Frank Raphael Weldon and Karl Pearson) became embroiled in a bitter debate, with Mendelians charging that the biometricians did not understand biology, and biometricians arguing that most biological traits exhibited continuous variation rather than the "jumps" expected by the early Mendelian theory.
		However the simple version of the early Mendelians soon gave way to the classical genetics of Thomas Hunt Morgan and his school, which thoroughly grounded and articulated the applications of Mendelian laws to biology.
