William Devonshire Saull (21 April 1783 – 26 April 1855) was an English wine merchant, who ploughed his profits into radical and socialist causes. A freethinker, he ran a fossil- and antiquities-based museum of evolution in London from 1831 to 1855, specifically for the working classes. (From Wikipedia)
