In 1836 the Royal College of Surgeons purchased an 'Incomplete right ramus of the mandible of a young female mastodon, with the last molar, from the Ohio River deposits', at an auction in London of fossils belonging to a Mr Ingham of Kentucky. Does anyone have any more information on Mr Ingham?
Many thanks
