TitleGalton's Notes and Drafts on Eugenics
Datec1900-c1909
DescriptionGalton's manuscript notes and draft articles on eugenics. The following headings appear in the notes: Purity of breed; the money worth to the state of an infant male child of selected parents; picked couples; eugenic [administration?], a forecast; worth defined by class place; worth estimated either by class place or by scale value and their mutual convertibility."

The drafts were found within a cover annotated by Karl Pearson "Some notes of value here, might be published in Annals of Eugenics, Sept 26 1929". The cover is also annotated with what appear to be titles from the drafts: "(1) Money worth to the state of an infant male child of selected parents. (2) Worth estimated by either Class Place or by Scale Value. (3) (a) Mendelian 1909 [struck through]. (b) Measurement of Peoples."
