Thure Ludwig Theodor Kumlien (November 9, 1819 – August 5, 1888) was a Swedish-American ornithologist, naturalist, and taxidermist. A contemporary of Thoreau, Audubon, and Agassiz, he contributed much to the knowledge of the natural history of Wisconsin and its birds. He collected and shipped specimens to many investigators in the United States and abroad. He taught botany and zoology, as well as foreign languages, at Albion Academy, and was particularly regarded as an expert in the identification of birds’ nests. ==Family and early life== Thure Kumlien was born in 1819 in the parish of Härlunda in Västergötland, Sweden, the oldest of fourteen children in an aristocratic Swedish family.〔Hoard Historical Museum, (Thure Kumlien ); access 2008-09-18.〕 His father, Ludwig Kumlien (1790–1839),〔Angie Kumlien Main, "Thure Kumlien, Koshkonong Naturalist", ''Wisconsin Magazine of History'', Volume 27, number 1, September 1943, p. 21.〕 was an army quartermaster, and owned several large estates.〔Taylor, p. 86〕 His mother, Johanna Rhodin (1800–1830) was the daughter of a minister.〔 His early education was with a tutor, after which he entered the Gymnasium of Skara.〔 He subsequently attended Uppsala University, graduating in 1843.〔 He took an early interest in natural history and collected many specimens, particularly from the Baltic islands, sending them to Hermann Schlegel of Leiden; Wilhelm Peters of Berlin, Carl Jakob Sundevall of the Swedish Museum of Natural History, Stockholm, and John Cassin of Boston were among his other correspondents.〔Taylor, p. 88.〕
