AW: paleonet Dates of birth/death for early paleontologists and other biologists




Dear Michel,

here are some more data.
    I am looking for years of birth/death for the following researchers:

-Eugène Delfortrie (Bordeaux-based French naturalist of the 19th century), I am sorry, I don´t have data.
-Max Schlosser (German paleontologist, late 19th-early 20th century):
1854 in Munich - 1932 in Munich, biography by Broili, F.: Centralblatt fuer Mineralogie B, 1933: 69-78.

-Jacob Lawson Wortman (American paleontologist, late 19th-early 20th century):
1856, near Oregon City - 1926 in Brownsville, Texas. biography by Osborne, H. F. (1926); Natural History, 26: 652-653. or: Holland, W.J. (1927): Ann. Carnegie Museum, 17: 199-201.

-Willi Hennig (German entomologist, famous for introducing modern phylogenetic systematics).
1913 near Zittau, Germany - 1976 in Stuttgart, biography by Schlee, D. (1978): Entomologica germanica, 4: 377-391.

Cheers,
Guenter

Published biographies or obituaries would also be of interest.
Can anyone help?
