English-born Canadian educator, geologist, and explorer whose expedition to the Northwest Territories in 1858 encouraged the settlement of those regions and their eventual union with Canada.

In 1848–53 he lectured in chemistry and mathematics at the provincial normal school in Toronto; he was professor of chemistry and geology at the University of Trinity College in Toronto in 1853–64. The Canadian government employed him as geologist on expeditions to the Red River (1858) and Labrador (1861); he was engaged by the government to make a geological survey of New Brunswick in 1864 and then of the goldfields of Nova Scotia in 1869–71.

In 1890 he was appointed president of the Anglican school of Edgehill, Nova Scotia.
