paleonet Memoirs of Ichthyosauri and Plesiosauri (1834)



All,
I am looking for the name of the person who illustrated the Hawkins 
(1834) book /Memoirs of Ichthyosauri and Plesiosauri. /Hopefully someone 
will have access to an original copy of the book, or a large format copy 
of one of the illustrations.
/
/Richard Forrest (Plesiosaur.com) has the book up on the web in .pdf and 
html formats:
http://www.plesiosaur.com/database/old_texts.htm

.... However, the resolution of the print shown on the figures is not 
good enough (for me at least) to read the artist's name for certain.  It 
appears to be either H. G. Neill or more likely, H. O'Neill...

Please reply off-list...

Regards,
