Charles Crossland (3 September 1844 – 9 December 1916) was an English mycologist. ==Background and career== Charles Crossland was born in Halifax, Yorkshire. His parents ran a general store and Charles left school at 13 to help them run the business. He trained as a butcher and opened a shop in Wyke in 1864, the same year he married Mary Ann Cragg. The couple had four children, two dying in infancy, and Mary Ann herself died in 1869. Charles remarried in 1871 and had two children by his second wife, Clementina Foster. In 1873, the couple returned to Halifax, where they opened a butcher's shop which they continued to run till Charles largely retired from the trade (leaving the shop mostly in the hands of a managing partner) in 1890. He was treasurer of the Halifax Butchers' Association from 1881 to 1908 and often referred to himself as a "Knight of the Cleaver".〔〔 He spoke and was interested in the local Halifax dialect, publishing a number of papers on local place-names and surnames in the ''Transactions of the Yorkshire Dialect Society'', of which he was a member, eventually becoming the society's president. In later years, he also compiled a bibliography of Halifax, parts of which were published in the ''Transactions of the Halifax Antiquarian Society'', as well as a local guide book, ''Pleasant walks around Halifax'' (1910).〔
