Searles Valentine Wood
Searles Valentine Wood (February 14, 1798 – October 26, 1880) was an English palaeontologist.
Wood went to sea in 1811 as a midshipman in the British East India Company's service, which he left, however, in 1826. He then settled at Hasketon near Woodbridge, Suffolk. He devoted himself to a study of the mollusca of the Newer Tertiary (now Neogene) of Suffolk and Norfolk,〔(The East Anglian Crags | Neogene Bryozoa of Britain )〕 and the Older Tertiary (Eocene) of the Hampshire Basin. On the latter subject he published ''A Monograph of the Eocene Bivalves of England'' (1861–1871), issued by the Palaeontographical Society. His chief work was ''A Monograph of the Crag Mollusca'' (1848–1856), published by the same society, for which he was awarded the Wollaston medal in 1860 by the Geological Society of London; a supplement was issued by him in 1872-1874, a second in 1879, and a third (edited by his son) in 1882. He died at Martlesham, near Woodbridge.
His son, Searles Valentine Wood (1830-1884), was for some years a solicitor at Woodbridge, but gave up the profession and devoted his energies to geology, studying especially the structure of the deposits of the crag and glacial drifts.
