Its object is to serve as an index to the achievements of + those families which, having been exceptionally productive of noteworthy + persons, seem especially suitable for biographical investigation.</p> + + <p>The facts that are given here are avowedly bald and imperfect; + nevertheless, they lead to certain important conclusions. They show, for + example, that a considerable proportion of the noteworthy members in a + population spring from comparatively few families.</p> + + <p>The material upon which this book is based is mainly derived from the + answers made to a circular sent to all the Fellows of the Royal Society + whose names appear in its Year Book for 1904.</p> + + <p>The questions were not unreasonably numerous, nor were they + inquisitorial; nevertheless, it proved that not one-half of those who + were addressed cared to answer them. It was, of course, desirable to + know a great deal more than could have been asked for or published with + propriety, such as the proneness <a name="Page_R10" id="Page_R10"></a>of + particular families to grave constitutional disease. Indeed, the secret + history of a family is quite as important in its eugenic aspect as its + public history; but one cannot expect persons to freely unlock their + dark closets and drag forth family skeletons into the light of day. It + was necessary in such a work as this to submit to considerable + limitations, while turning to the fullest account whatever could be + stated openly without giving the smallest offence to any of the persons + concerned.</p> + + <p>One limitation against which I still chafe in vain is the + impracticability of ascertaining so apparently simple a matter as the + number of kinsfolk of each person in each specific degree of near + kinship, without troublesome solicitations. It was specially asked for + in the circular, but by no means generally answered, even by those who + replied freely to other questions. The reason must in some cases have + been mere oversight or pure inertia, but to a large extent it was due to + ignorance, for I was astonished to find many to whom the number of even + their near kinsfolk was avowedly unknown. Emigration, foreign service, + feuds between near connections, differences of social position, + faintness of family interest, each produced their several effects, with + the result, as I have reason to believe, that hardly one-half of the + persons addressed were able, without first making inquiry of others, to + reckon the number of their uncles, adult nephews, and first cousins. The + isolation of some few from even their nearest relatives was occasionally + so complete that the<a name="Page_R11" id="Page_R11"></a> number of + their brothers was unknown. It will be seen that this deficiency of + information admits of being supplied indirectly, to a considerable + degree.</p> + + <p>The collection of even the comparatively small amount of material now + in hand proved much more troublesome than was anticipated, but as the + object and limitations of inquiries like this become generally + understood, and as experience accumulates, the difficulty of similar + work in the future will presumably lessen.</p> + <hr /> + + <h3><a name="Chapter_II" id="Chapter_II"></a>Chapter + II.—Noteworthiness.</h3> + + <p>The Fellowship of the Royal Society is a distinction highly + appreciated by all members of the scientific world. Fifteen men are + annually selected by its council out of some sixty candidates, each + candidate being proposed by six, and usually by more, Fellows in a + certificate containing his qualifications. The candidates themselves are + representatives of a multitude of persons to whom the title would be not + only an honour but a material advantage. The addition of the letters + “F.R.S.” to the names of applicants to any post, however + remotely connected with science, is a valuable testimonial and a + recognised aid towards success, so the number of those who desire it is + very large. Experience shows that no special education, other than + self-instruction, is really required to attain this honour. Access to + laboratories, good tuition, and so forth, are doubtless helpful, so far + <a name="Page_R12" id="Page_R12"></a>that many have obtained the + distinction through such aid who could not otherwise have done so, but + they are far from being all-important factors of success. The facts that + lie patent before the eyes of every medical man, engineer, and the + members of most professions, afford ample material for researches that + would command the attention of the scientific world if viewed with + intelligence and combined by a capable mind.</p> + + <p>It is so difficult to compare the number of those who might have + succeeded with the number of those who do, that the following + illustration may perhaps be useful: By adding to the 53 registration + counties in England, the 12 in Wales, the 33 in Scotland and the 32 in + Ireland, an aggregate of 130 is obtained. The English counties, and the + others in a lesser degree, have to be ransacked in order to supply the + fifteen annually-elected Fellows; so it requires more than eight of + these counties to yield an annual supply of a single Fellow to the Royal + Society.</p> + + <p>It is therefore contended that the Fellows of the Royal Society have + sufficient status to be reckoned “noteworthy,” and, such + being the case, they are a very convenient body for inquiries like + these. They are trained to, and have sympathy with, scientific + investigations; biographical notices are published of them during their + lifetime, notably in the convenient compendium “Who's Who,” + to which there will be frequent occasion to refer; and they are more or + less known to one another, either directly or through friends, making it + comparatively easy to satisfy the <a name="Page_R13" id= + "Page_R13"></a>occasional doubts which may arise from their + communications. It was easier and statistically safer to limit the + inquiry to those Fellows who were living when the circulars were + issued—that is, to those whose names and addresses appear in the + “Royal Society's Year Book” of 1904. Some of them have since + died, full of honours, having done their duty to their generation; + others have since been elected; so the restriction given here to the + term “Modern Science” must be kept in mind.</p> + + <p>Another and a strong motive for selecting the F.R.S. as subjects of + inquiry was that so long ago as 1863-1864 I had investigated the + antecedents of 180 of those who were then living, who were further + distinguished by one or other of certain specified and recognised + honours. My conclusions were briefly described in a Friday evening + lecture, February 27, 1864, before the Royal Institution. These, + together with the data on which they were founded, were published in the + same year in my book “English Men of Science.” Readers who + desire fuller information as to the antecedents conducive to success + that are too briefly described further on should refer to the above + book.</p> + + <p>The epithet “noteworthy” is applied to achievements in + all branches of effort that rank among the members of any profession or + calling as equal, at least, to that which an F.R.S. holds among + scientific men. This affords a convenient and sufficiently definite + standard of merit. I could think of none more appropriate when + addressing scientific men, <a name="Page_R14" id="Page_R14"></a>and it + seems to have been generally understood in the desired sense. It + includes more than a half of those whose names appear in the modern + editions of “Who's Who,” which are become less discriminate + than the earlier ones. “Noteworthiness” is ascribed, without + exception, to all whose names appear in the “Dictionary of + National Biography,” but all of these were dead before the date of + the publication of that work and its supplement. Noteworthiness is also + ascribed to those whose biographies appear in the + “Encyclopædia Britannica” (which includes many who are + now alive), and, in other works, of equivalent authority. As those + persons were considered by editors of the last named publications to be + worthy of note, I have accepted them, on their authority, as + noteworthy.</p> + <hr /> + + <h3><a name="Chapter_III" id="Chapter_III"></a>Chapter + III.—Highest Order of Ability.</h3> + + <p>No attempt is made in this book to deal with the transmission of + ability of the very highest order, as the data in hand do not furnish + the required material, nor will the conclusions be re-examined at length + that I published many years ago in “Hereditary Genius.” + Still, some explanation is desirable to show the complexity of the + conditions that are concerned with the hereditary transmission of the + highest ability, which, for the moment, will be considered as the same + thing as the highest fame.</p> + + <p>It has often been remarked that the men who <a name="Page_R15" id= + "Page_R15"></a>have attained pinnacles of celebrity failed to leave + worthy successors, if any. Many concurrent causes aid in producing this + result. An obvious one is that such persons are apt to be so immersed in + their pursuit, and so wedded to it, that they do not care to be + distracted by a wife. Another is the probable connection between severe + mental strain and fertility. Women who study hard have, as a + class—at least, according to observant caricaturists—fewer + of the more obvious feminine characteristics; but whether this should be + considered a cause or a consequence, or both, it is difficult to say. A + third, and I think the most important, reason why the children of very + distinguished persons fall sometimes lamentably short of their parents + in ability is that the highest order of mind results from a fortunate + mixture of incongruous constituents, and not of such as naturally + harmonize. Those constituents are <i>negatively</i> correlated, and + therefore the compound is unstable in heredity. This is eminently the + case in the typical artistic temperament, which certainly harmonizes + with Bohemianism and passion, and is opposed to the useful qualities of + regularity, foresight, and level common sense. Where these and certain + other incongruous faculties go together in well-adjusted proportions, + they are capable of achieving the highest success; but their heritage is + most unlikely to be transmitted in its entirety, and ill-balanced + compounds of the same constituents are usually of little avail, and + sometimes extraordinarily bad. A fourth reason is that the highest + imaginative power is dangerously near <a name="Page_R16" id= + "Page_R16"></a>lunacy. If one of the sanest of poets, Wordsworth, had, + as he said, not unfrequently to exert strength, as by shaking a + gate-post, to gain assurance that the world around him was a reality, + his mind could not at those times have been wholly sane. Sanity is + difficult to define, except negatively; but, even though we may be + convinced of the truths of the mystic, that nothing is what it seems to + be, the above-mentioned conduct suggests temporary insanity. It is + sufficient to conclude, as any Philistine would, that whoever has to + shake a gate-post to convince himself that it is not a vision is + dangerously near madness. Mad people do such things; those who carry on + the work of the world as useful and law-abiding citizens do not. I may + add that I myself had the privilege of hearing at first hand the + narrator's own account of this incident, which was much emphasized by + his gestures and tones. Wordsworth's unexpected sally was in reply to a + timid question by the late Professor Bonamy Price, then a young man, + concerning the exact meaning of the lines in his famous “Ode to + Immortality,” “not for these I raise the song of praise; but + for those obstinate <i>questionings of sense and outward + things</i>,” etc.</p> + + <p>I cannot speak from the present returns, but only from my own private + knowledge of the somewhat abnormal frequency with which eccentricity, or + other mental unsoundness, occurs in the families of very able scientific + men. Lombroso, as is well known, strongly asserted the truth of this + fact, but more strongly, as it seems to myself, than the evidence + warrants.</p> + + <p><a name="Page_R17" id="Page_R17"></a>It is, therefore, not in the + highest examples of human genius that heredity can be most profitably + studied, men of high, but not of the highest, ability being more + suitable. The only objection to their use is that their names are, for + the most part, unfamiliar to the public.</p> + + <p>The vastness of the social world is very imperfectly grasped by its + several members, the large majority of the numerous persons who have + been eminent above their far more numerous fellows, each in his own + special department, being unknown to the generality. The merits of such + men can be justly appreciated only by reference to records of their + achievements. Let no reader be so conceited as to believe his present + ignorance of a particular person to be a proof that the person in + question does not merit the title of noteworthy.</p> + + <p>I said what I have to say about the modern use of the word + “genius” in the preface to the second edition of my + “Hereditary Genius.” It has only latterly lost its old and + usual meaning, which is preserved in the term of an + “ingenious” artisan, and has come to be applied to something + akin to inspiration. This simply means, as I suppose, though some may + think differently, that the powers of unconscious work possessed by the + brain are abnormally developed in them. The heredity of these powers has + not, I believe, been as yet especially studied. It is strange that more + attention has not been given until recently to unconscious brain-work, + because it is by far the most potent factor in <a name="Page_R18" id= + "Page_R18"></a>mental operations. Few people, when in rapid + conversation, have the slightest idea of the particular form which a + sentence will assume into which they have hurriedly plunged, yet through + the guidance of unconscious cerebration it develops itself grammatically + and harmoniously. I write on good authority in asserting that the best + speaking and writing is that which seems to flow automatically shaped + out of a full mind.</p> + <hr /> + + <h3><a name="Chapter_IV" id="Chapter_IV"></a>Chapter + IV.—Proportion of Noteworthies to the Generality.</h3> + + <p>The materials on which the subject of this chapter depends are too + various to lead to a single definite and trustworthy answer. Men who + have won their way to the front out of uncongenial environments owe + their success principally, I believe, to their untiring energy, and to + an exceptionally strong inclination in youth towards the pursuits in + which they afterwards distinguished themselves. They do not seem often + to be characterized by an ability that continues pre-eminent on a wider + stage, because after they have fully won a position for themselves, and + become engaged in work along with others who had no early difficulties + to contend with, they do not, as a rule, show greatly higher natural + ability than their colleagues. This is noticeable in committees and in + other assemblies or societies where intellects are <a name="Page_R19" + id="Page_R19"></a>pitted against one another. The bulk of existing + noteworthies seem to have had but little more than a fair education as + small boys, during which their eagerness and aptitude for study led to + their receiving favour and facilities. If, in such cases, the aptitudes + are scholastic, a moderate sum suffices to give the boy a better + education, enabling him to win scholarships and to enter a University. + If they lie in other directions, the boy attracts notice from some more + congenial source, and is helped onwards in life by other means. The + demand for exceptional ability, when combined with energy and good + character, is so great that a lad who is gifted with them is hardly more + likely to remain overlooked than a bird's nest in the playground of a + school. But, by whatever means noteworthiness is achieved, it is usually + after a course of repeated and half-unconscious testings of + intelligence, energy, and character, which build up repute brick by + brick.</p> + + <p>If we compare the number of those who achieved noteworthiness through + their own exertions with the numbers of the greatly more numerous + persons whose names are registered in legal, clerical, medical, + official, military, and naval directories, or in those of the titled + classes<a name="FNanchor_A_1" id="FNanchor_A_1"></a><a href= + "#Footnote_A_1" class="fnanchor">[A]</a> and landed gentry, or lastly, + of those of the immense commercial world, the proportion <a name= + "Page_R20" id="Page_R20"></a>of one noteworthy person to one hundred of + the generality who were equally well circumstanced as himself does not + seem to be an over-estimate.</p> + + <div class="footnote"> + <p style="text-indent:0;"><a name="Footnote_A_1" id="Footnote_A_1"></a><a href= + "#FNanchor_A_1">[A]</a> By a rough count of the entries in Burke's + “Peerage, Baronetage and Knightage,” I find that upwards + of 24,000 ladies are of sufficient rank to be included by name in his + Table of Precedence.</p> + </div> + <hr /> + + <h3><a name="Chapter_V" id="Chapter_V"></a>Chapter + V.—Noteworthiness as a Measure of Ability.</h3> + + <p>Success is the joint result of the natural powers of mind and body, + and of favourable circumstances. Those of the latter which fall into + definite groups will be distinguished as “environment,” + while the others, which evade classification, will be called + “accidental.”</p> + + <p>The superstitions of old times cling so tenaciously to modern thought + that the words “accident” and “chance” commonly + connote some mysterious agency. Nothing of the kind is implied here. The + word “accident” and the like is used in these pages simply + to express the effect of unknown or unnoted causes, without the + slightest implication that they are unknowable. In most cases their + neglect has been partly due to their individual insignificance, though + their combined effect may be very powerful when a multitude work in the + same direction. Moreover, a trifling pressure at the right spot suffices + to release a hair-trigger and thereby to cause an explosion; similarly, + with personal and social events, a trifling accident will sometimes + determine a career.</p> + + <p>Noteworthiness and success may be regarded <a name="Page_R21" id= + "Page_R21"></a>statistically as the outcome of ability and environment + and of nothing else, because the effects of chance tend to be eliminated + by statistical treatment. The question then becomes, How far may + noteworthiness be accepted as a statistical measure of ability?</p> + + <p>Ability and environment are each composed of many elements that + differ greatly in character. Ability may be especially strong in + particular directions as in administration, art, scholarship, or + science; it is, nevertheless, so adaptive that an able man has often + found his way to the front under more than one great change of + circumstance. The force that impels towards noteworthy deeds is an + innate disposition in some men, depending less on circumstances than in + others. They are like ships that carry an auxiliary steam-power, capable + of moving in a dead calm and against adverse winds. Others are like the + ordinary sailing ships of the present day—they are stationary in a + calm, but can make some way towards their destination under almost any + wind. Without a stimulus of some kind these men are idle, but almost any + kind of stimulus suffices to set them in action. Others, again, are like + Arab dhows, that do little more than drift before the monsoon or other + wind; but then they go fast.</p> + + <p>Environment is a more difficult topic to deal with, because + conditions that are helpful to success in one pursuit may be detrimental + in another. High social rank and wealth conduce to success in political + life, but their distractions and claims clash with <a name="Page_R22" + id="Page_R22"></a>quiet investigation. Successes are of the most varied + descriptions, but those registered in this book are confined to such as + are reputed honourable, and are not obviously due to favour.</p> + + <p>In attacking the problem it therefore becomes necessary to fix the + attention, in the first instance, upon the members of some one large, + special profession, as upon artists, leaders in commerce, investigators, + scholars, warriors, and so forth, then to divide these into subclasses, + until more appears to be lost through paucity of material than is gained + through its increasing homogeneity.</p> + + <p>Whatever group be selected, both ability and environment must be + rated according to the requirements of that group. It then becomes + possible, and it is not difficult, to roughly array individuals under + each of these two heads successively, and to label every person with + letters signifying his place in either class. For purposes of the + following explanation, each quality will be distributed into three + grades, determined not by value, but by class place—namely, the + highest third, the medium third, and the lowest third. In respect to + ability, these classes will be called A, B, and C. In respect to + environment, the grades will refer to its helpfulness towards the + particular success achieved, and the classes will be called E, F, G. It + must be clearly understood that the differences between the grades do + not profess to be equal, merely that A is higher than B, and B than C; + similarly as to E, F, and G. The A, B, C may be quite independent of E, + F, G, <a name="Page_R23" id="Page_R23"></a>or they may be correlated. + Both cases will be considered.</p> + + <p>Ability and Environment being mutually helpful towards success, the + successes statistically associated with AE will be reckoned higher than + those associated with AF. Again, for simplicity of explanation only, it + will here be assumed that Ability and Environment are equally potent in + securing success. Any other reasonable relation between their influences + may be substituted for the purpose of experiment, but the ultimate + conclusion will be much the same.</p> + + <table class="spaced all" border="1" summary="This table shows the nine possible combinations of three levels of Ability and three levels of Favourable Environment, and labels each combination with a Grade I, II or III according to how successful each is expected to be."> + <caption> + Table I.—Combinations of Ability and Environment. + <a name="table1" id="table1"></a> + </caption> + <tr> + <td>AE.

Specific kinships are + briefly expressed by a nomenclature in which <i>fa</i>, <i>me</i>, + <i>bro</i>, <i>si</i>, <i>son</i>, <i>da</i>, <i>Hu</i>, <i>Wi</i>, + stand respectively for <i>father</i>, <i>mother</i>, <i>brother</i>, + <i>sister</i>, <i>son</i>, <i>daughter</i>, <i>Husband</i>, <i>Wife</i>. + Each of these syllables is supposed to have the possessive <i>'s</i> + added to it whenever it is followed by another syllable of the set, or + by the word <i>is</i> when it is not. <i>Example</i>: Let the person + from whom the kinships are reckoned be called <i>P</i>, and let <i>Q</i> + and <i>R</i> be two of <i>P'</i>s kinsfolk, described respectively as + <i>fa bro</i> and <i>me si son</i>.

The counters are linked + together by bands of various widths, down to mere threads, the widths + being proportional to the closeness of the several kinships. Those in + the first degree (<i>father</i>, <i>mother</i>, <i>brother</i>, + <i>sister</i>, <i>son</i>, <i>daughter</i>) are comparatively broad; + those in the second degree (<i>grandparent</i>, <i>uncle</i>, + <i>aunt</i>, <i>nephew</i>, <i>niece</i>, <i>grandchild</i>) are + considerably narrower; those in the third degree are very narrow indeed. + Proceeding outwards, the connections soon become thinner than gossamer. + The person represented by any one of these counters may be taken as the + subject of a pedigree, and all the counters connected with it may be + noted up to any specified width of band. In this book one of the + counters is supposed to represent a Fellow of the Royal Society, whose + name appears in the “Year-Book” of that Society for 1904, + and the linkage <a name="Page_R29" id="Page_R29"></a>proceeds outwards + from him to the third degree inclusive.

It puzzled me until I had thought the matter out, + and when the results were published in “Nature,” it also + seems to have puzzled an able mathematician, and gave rise to some + newspaper controversy, which need not be recapitulated. The essence of + the problem is that the sex of one child is supposed to give no clue of + any practical importance to that of any other child in the same family. + Therefore, if one child be selected out of a family of brothers and + sisters, the proportion of males to females in those that remain will + be, <i>on the average</i>, identical with that of males to females in + the population at large. It makes no difference whether the selected + child be a boy or a girl. Of course, if the conditions were “given + a family of three boys and three girls,” each boy would have only + two brothers and three sisters, and each girl would have three brothers + and two sisters, but that is not the problem.</p> + + <p>Subject to this explanation, the general accuracy of the observed + figures which attest the truth of the above conclusion cannot be + gainsaid on theoretical grounds, nor can the conclusions be ignored to + which they lead. They enable us to make calculations concerning the + average number of kinsfolk in each and every specified degree in a + stationary population, or, if desired, in one that increases or + decreases at a specified rate. It will here be supposed for convenience + that the average number of males and <a name="Page_R32" id= + "Page_R32"></a>females are equal, but any other proportion may be + substituted. The calculations only regard its fertile members; they show + that every person has, on the average, about one male fertile relative + in each and every form of specific kinship.</p> + + <p>Kinsfolk may be divided into direct ancestry, collaterals of all + kinds, and direct descendants. As regards the direct ancestry, each + person has one and only one ancestor in each specific degree, one + <i>fa</i>, one <i>fa fa</i>, one <i>me fa</i>, and so on, although in + each <i>generic</i> degree it is otherwise; he has two grandfathers, + four great-grandfathers, etc. With collaterals and descendants the + average number of <i>fertile</i> relatives in each specified degree must + be stationary in a stationary population, and calculation shows that + number is approximately <i>one</i>. The calculation takes no cognizance + of infertile relatives, and so its results are unaffected by the detail + whether the population is kept stationary by an increased birth-rate of + children or other infertiles, accompanied by an increased death-rate + among them, or contrariwise.</p> + + <p>The exact conclusions were (“Nature,” September 29, 1904, + p. 529), that if 2<i>d</i> be the number of children in a family, half + of them <i>on the average</i> being male, and if the population be + stationary, the number of fertile males in each specific ancestral + kinship would be <i>one</i>, in each collateral it would be <i>d</i> - + 1/2, in each descending kinship <i>d</i>. If 2<i>d</i> = 5 (which is a + common size of family), one of these on the average would be a fertile + son, one a fertile <a name="Page_R33" id="Page_R33"></a>daughter, and + the three that remained would leave no issue. They would either die as + boys or girls or they would remain unmarried, or, if married, would have + no children.</p> + + <p>The reasonable and approximate assumption I now propose to make is + that the number of fertile individuals is not grossly different to that + of those who live long enough to have an opportunity of distinguishing + themselves. Consequently, the calculations that apply to fertile persons + will be held to apply very roughly to those who were in a position, so + far as age is concerned, to achieve noteworthiness, whether they did so + or not. Thus, if a group of 100 men had between them 20 noteworthy + paternal uncles, it will be assumed that the total number of their + paternal uncles who reached mature age was about 100, making the + intensity of success as 20 to 100, or as 1 to 5. This method of roughly + evading the serious difficulty arising from ignorance of the true values + in the individual cases is quite legitimate, and close enough for + present purposes.</p> + <hr /> + + <h3><a name="Chapter_VIII" id="Chapter_VIII"></a>Chapter + VIII.—Number of Noteworthy Kinsmen in each Degree.</h3> + + <p>The materials with which I am dealing do not admit of adequately + discussing noteworthiness in women, whose opportunities of achieving + distinction are far fewer than those of men, and whose energies <a name= + "Page_R34" id="Page_R34"></a>are more severely taxed by domestic and + social duties. Women have sometimes been accredited in these returns by + a member of their own family circle, as being gifted with powers at + least equal to those of their distinguished brothers, but definite facts + in corroboration of such estimates were rarely supplied.</p> + + <p>The same absence of solid evidence is more or less true of gifted + youths whose scholastic successes, unless of the highest order, are a + doubtful indication of future power and performance, these depending + much on the length of time during which their minds will continue to + develop. Only a few of the Subjects of the pedigrees in the following + pages have sons in the full maturity of their powers, so it seemed safer + to exclude all relatives who were of a lower generation than themselves + from the statistical inquiry. This will therefore be confined to the + successes of fathers, brothers, grandfathers, uncles, great-uncles, + great-grandfathers, and male first cousins.</p> + + <p>Only 207 persons out of the 467 who were addressed sent serviceable + replies, and these cannot be considered a fair sample of the whole. + Abstention might have been due to dislike of publicity, to inertia, or + to pure ignorance, none of which would have much affected the values as + a sample; but an unquestionably common motive does so + seriously—namely, when the person addressed had no noteworthy + kinsfolk to write about. On the latter ground the 260 who did not reply + would, as a whole, be poorer in noteworthy kinsmen than the 207 who + <a name="Page_R35" id="Page_R35"></a>did. The true percentages for the + 467 lie between two limits: the upper limit supposes the richness of the + 207 to be shared by the 260; the lower limit supposes it to be + concentrated in the 207, the remaining 260 being utterly barren of it. + Consequently, the upper limit is found by multiplying the number of + observations by 100 and dividing by 207, the lower by multiplying by 100 + and dividing by 467. These limits are unreasonably wide; I cannot guess + which is the more remote from the truth, but it cannot be far removed + from their mean values, and this may be accepted as roughly approximate. + The observations and conclusions from them are given in <a href="#table7">Table VII.</a>, p. + <a href="#Page_R40">xl</a>.</p> + <hr /> + + <h3><a name="Chapter_IX" id="Chapter_IX"></a>Chapter IX.—Marked + and Unmarked Degrees of Noteworthiness.</h3> + + <p>Persons who are technically “noteworthy” are by no means + of equal eminence, some being of the highest distinction, while others + barely deserve the title.

The problem + resembles a familiar one that relates to methods for electing + Parliamentary representatives, such as have been proposed at various + times, whether it should be by the coarse method of one man one vote, or + through <a name="Page_R36" id="Page_R36"></a>some elaborate arrangement + which seems highly preferable at first sight, but may be found on + further consideration to lead to much the same results.</p> + + <p>In order to test the question, I marked each noteworthy person whose + name occurs in the list of sixty-six families at the end of this book + with 3, 2, or 1, according to what I considered his deserts, and soon + found that it was easy to mark them with fair consistency. It is not + necessary to give the rules which guided me, as they were very often + modified by considerations, each obvious enough in itself, but difficult + to summarize as a whole. Various provisional trials were made; I then + began afresh by rejecting a few names as undeserving any mark at all, + and, having marked the remainder individually, found that a total of 657 + marks had been awarded to 332 persons; 117 of them had received 3 marks; + 101, 2 marks; 104, 1 mark; so the three subdivisions were approximately + equal in number. The marks being too few to justify detailed treatment, + I have grouped the kinsmen into first, second, and third degrees, and + into first cousins, the latter requiring a group to themselves. The + first degree contains father and brothers; the second, grandfathers and + uncles; the third, great-grandparents and great-uncles. The results are + shown in <a href="#table6">Table VI.</a> The marks assigned to each of the groups are given in + the first line (total 657), and the number of the noteworthy persons in + each group who received any mark at all is shown in the third line + (total 329).

The closeness of resemblance between the second and third + lines emphatically answers the question to be solved. There is no + significant difference between the results of the marked and the + unmarked observations. The reason probably is that the distribution of + triple, double, and single marks separately is much the same in each of + the groups, and therefore remains alike when the three sets of marks are + in use at the same time.

The + noteworthy great-grandfathers, <i>fa fa fa</i>, who bear the same name + as the subject are twice as numerous as the <i>me fa fa</i> who bear the + maiden surname of the mother, and more than five times as numerous as + either of the other two, the <i>fa me fa</i> and <i>me me fa</i>, whose + surnames differ from both, unless it be through some accident, whether + of a cross marriage or a chance similarity of names. It is just the same + with the great-uncles. Now, the figures for great-grandfathers and + great-uncles run so closely alike that they may fairly be grouped + together, in order to obtain a more impressive whole—namely, two + sorts of these kinsmen, bearing the same name as the Subject, contain + between them 23 noteworthies, or 11.50 each; two sorts having the + mother's maiden surname contain together 11 noteworthies, <a name= + "Page_R39" id="Page_R39"></a>or 5.50 each; four sorts containing between + them 7 names, or an average of 1.75 each. These figures are + self-consistent, being each the sum of two practically equal + constituents, and they are sufficiently numerous to be significant. The + remarkable differences in their numbers, 11.50, 5.50, 1.75, when they + ought to have been equal, has therefore to be accounted for, and the + explanation given above seems both reasonable and sufficient.</p> + <hr /> + + <h3><a name="Chapter_X" id="Chapter_X"></a>Chapter + X.—Conclusions.</h3> + + <p>The most casual glance at <a href="#table7">Table VII.</a> leaves no doubt as to the rapid + diminution in the frequency of noteworthiness as the distance of kinship + to the F.R.S. increases, and it would presumably do the same to any + other class of noteworthy persons.</p> + + <p>In drawing more exact conclusions, the returns must be deemed to + refer not to a group of 207 F.R.S., because they are not a fair sample + of the whole body of 467, and, for reasons already given, they are too + rich in noteworthiness for the one and too poor for the other. They + will, therefore, be referred to the number that is the mean of these two + limits—namely, to 337. I am aware of no obvious guidance to any + better hypothesis.</p> + + <p>The value of the expectation that noteworthiness would be found in + any specified kinsman of an <a name="Page_R40" id="Page_R40"></a>F.R.S., + of whom nothing else is known, may be easily calculated from <a href="#table7">Table VII.</a> + on the two hypotheses already mentioned and justified: (1) That the + figures should be taken to refer to 337, and not to 207; (2) that 1 per + cent. of the generality are noteworthy—that is to say, there are + 3.37 noteworthies to every 337 persons of the generality.</p> + + <table class="cols" style="text-align:left;" summary="This table lists for each family relationship the number of noteworthy people having that relationship to an F.R.S. in the sample."> + <caption> + Table VII.—Number of Noteworthy Kinsmen Recorded in 207 + Returns. + <a name="table7" id="table7"></a> + </caption> + <col /> + <col style="border-right:double;" /> + <col /> + <col /> + <tr> + <th>Kinship.</th> + <th>Numbers<br /> + Recorded.</th> + <th>Kinship.</th> + <th>Numbers<br /> + Recorded.</th> + </tr> + <tr> + <td><i>fa</i></td> + <td>81</td> + <td>—</td> + <td>—</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td><i>bro</i></td> + <td>104</td> + <td>—</td> + <td>—</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td><i>fa fa</i></td> + <td>40</td> + <td><i>fa fa fa</i></td> + <td>11</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td><i>me fa</i></td> + <td>42</td> + <td><i>fa me fa</i></td> + <td>2</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td><i>fa bro</i></td> + <td>45</td> + <td><i>me fa fa</i></td> + <td>5</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td><i>me bro</i></td> + <td>52</td> + <td><i>me me fa</i></td> + <td>1</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td><i>fa bro son</i></td> + <td>30</td> + <td><i>fa fa bro</i></td> + <td>12</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td><i>me bro son</i></td> + <td>19</td> + <td><i>fa me bro</i></td> + <td>2</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td><i>fa si son</i></td> + <td>28</td> + <td><i>me fa bro</i></td> + <td>6</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td><i>me si son</i></td> + <td>22</td> + <td><i>me me bro</i></td> + <td>2</td> + </tr> + </table> + + <p>Thus, for the fathers of F.R.S., 81 are recorded as noteworthy, + against 3.37 of fathers of the generality—that is, they are 24.1 + times as numerous. For the first cousins of F.R.S. there are 99 + noteworthies, divided amongst four kinds of male first-cousins, or 24.75 + on an average to each kind, against the 3.37 of the + generality—that is, they are 7.3 times as numerous.</p> + + <p>On this principle the expectation of noteworthiness <a name= + "Page_R41" id="Page_R41"></a>in a kinsman of an F.R.S. (or of other + noteworthy person) is greater in the following proportion than in one + who has no such kinsman: If he be a father, 24 times as great; if a + brother, 31 times; if a grandfather, 12 times; if an uncle, 14 times; if + a male first cousin, 7 times; if a great-great-grandfather on the + paternal line, 3½ times.</p> + + <p>The reader may work out results for himself on other hypotheses as to + the percentage of noteworthiness among the generality. A considerably + larger proportion would be noteworthy in the higher classes of society, + but a far smaller one in the lower; it is to the bulk, say, to + three-quarters of them, that the 1 per cent. estimate applies, the + extreme variations from it tending to balance one another.</p> + + <p>The figures on which the above calculations depend may each or all of + them be changed to any reasonable amount, without shaking the truth of + the great fact upon which Eugenics is based, that able fathers produce + able children in a much larger proportion than the generality.</p> + + <p style="margin-top:2em;"><a name="Page_R42" id="Page_R42"></a>The + parents of the 207 Fellows of the Royal Society occupy a wide variety of + social positions.

Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: +https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + +Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's +eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII, +compressed (zipped), HTML and others. + +Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks replace the old file and take over +the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed. +VERSIONS based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving +new filenames and etext numbers. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + +<a href="https://www.gutenberg.org">https://www.gutenberg.org</a> + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + +EBooks posted prior to November 2003, with eBook numbers BELOW #10000, +are filed in directories based on their release date. If you want to +download any of these eBooks directly, rather than using the regular +search system you may utilize the following addresses and just +download by the etext year. + +<a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext06/">https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext06/</a> + + (Or /etext 05, 04, 03, 02, 01, 00, 99, + 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90) + +EBooks posted since November 2003, with etext numbers OVER #10000, are +filed in a different way. The year of a release date is no longer part +of the directory path. The path is based on the etext number (which is +identical to the filename). The path to the file is made up of single +digits corresponding to all but the last digit in the filename. For +example an eBook of filename 10234 would be found at: + +https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/1/0/2/3/10234 + +or filename 24689 would be found at: +https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/2/4/6/8/24689 + +An alternative method of locating eBooks: +<a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/GUTINDEX.ALL">https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/GUTINDEX.ALL</a> + +*** END: FULL LICENSE *** +</pre> +</body> +</html> |
