Re: Lydia Ernestine Becker
The earliest outstanding figure, however, is Lydia Ernestine Becker (1827-1890), descended on the mother's side from an old Lancashire family, her father being the son of a German who settled in England in early youth. She became a well-known botanist, and an intimate friend of Charles Darwin.
