Morley Evans Wilson was born in 1881 in Bright, Ontario, obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Toronto in 1907 and his doctorate from Yale University in 1912. He spent his career as a geologist with the Geological Survey of Canada.
Dr. Morley Evans Wilson had strong interests in, and wrote extensively on, economic geology and Precambrian geology, especially mines and mineral deposits in the Canadian Shield. His doctoral thesis was entitled ‘Preliminary memoir on the Abitibi district, Pontiac County, Quebec’, which was published in part as Kewagama Lake Map-Area, Quebec, Memoir 39, Department of Mines, Geological Survey, Ottawa, 1913 and in part as a paper entitled ‘The Cobalt Series; Its Character and Origin’ that was published in the The Journal of Geology, Vol. 21 (1913).. This district was chosen for study because “ little detailed information was available with regard to either the character of the country, its geology, or its economic possibilities. It was further apparent that, owing to its proximity to regions in Ontario where gold had been recently discovered and the easy access afforded by the National Transcontinental railway, the district would soon be actively prospected.” Chapter V of the Memoir is devoted to Economic Geology.
His papers on economic geology include:

Dr. Morley Wilson was awarded the Penrose Medal in 1950 by the Geological Society of America for stratigraphic work that he initiated on the Precambrian, demonstrating that one could use stratigraphic methods to work out structures and sequence in the Precambrian. The Penrose Medal is the top prize awarded by the Geological Society of America, and is awarded only at the discretion of the GSA council, "in recognition of eminent research in pure geology, for outstanding original contributions or achievements that mark a major advance in the science of geology." Interestingly, no award was given in 1929, 1937 or 1943. (Other Canadian recipients of the Penrose Medal were Raymond A. Price in 2012, Paul F. Hoffman in 2011, J. Tuzo Wilson in 1968, N. L. Bowen in 1941, A. P. Coleman in 1936, and Reginald Aldworth Daly in 1935.)
A few other details on his life are available on the internet. He was a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada (1926). He was on the Board of Examiners from 1929 to 1931 for Frontier College. He was an active member of the Ottawa Field Naturalists Club, serving as a member of council in 1929, as vice-president from 1930-1933 and president in 1934 and 1935. After he retired from the Geological Survey he was a Sessional Lecturer in Geology at Carleton University from 1947-1953. He loved to curl. After Dr. Morley Wilson died his estate endowed geologic scholarships in his name at Carleton University in Ottawa and Queen’s University at Kingston.
Dr. James M. Harrison, a former director of the Geological Survey of Canada, in an unpublished paper entitled ‘Tales of the GSC,’ provides a number of anecdotes on Morley Wilson. Dr. Harrison mentions that “Morley Wilson was a small, spare, sparrow-like man whose religion, vocation, and hobby was geology.” By way of example, he mentions that for September 3 and 10, 1939 Dr. Morley Wilson and Dr. Ambrose had planned meetings and field trips with Ontario and Quebec geologists to look at points of stratigraphic interest near Noranda, Quebec. It happened that September 3rd was the day Britain declared war on Germany while September 10th was the day that Canada declared war. While Morley Wilson wanted to talk geology, no one was listening. Dr. Harrison comments on the September 3rd field trip: “Dr. Wilson who rarely ever took a drink of any sort, got so desperate that he grabbed a bottle of beer around the neck so that it hung down below his hand, and then walked around through the crowd trying to stir up talk on geology without any success whatsoever. I’m sure he felt that the whole day was entirely wasted talking about inconsequential things. ”
Dr. Harrison dictated on tape his reminiscences of various field officers of the Survey, which have transcribed and are available on the Government of Canada’s online GEOSCAN database of papers and maps:
Harrison, James M., dictated on tape 1988, transcribed, edited 1992
Tales of the GSC
https://geoscan.nrcan.gc.ca/text/geoscan/fulltext/GSCHIS_B001docs.pdf
Dr. Harrison provides other anecdotes about Morley Wilson, including mentioning that “Morley was noted for running his party as if it were in civilization....”, that he (Harrison) and Dr. Ambrose were invited “over to dinner one Sunday to Morley Wilson’s field camp which at that time was in some of the buildings of the abandoned McWatter mine near Noranda . ... I don’t remember if we wore ties, but I think we did. ... When the cook rang the bell for dinner, we trooped [in] ... where Morley sat at the head of the table. On his right sat Dr. Ambrose, on his left sat the subchief of Dr. Wilson’s party, ... I sat next to Willis Ambrose, as presumably the most senior of the senior associates of the two parties, and so on down the table [to] the most junior assistant... Grace was said, and Morley carved the meat, and we carried on exactly as if we were dining in the main dining room of the Chateau Laurier.”
A paper that I have not been able to read, as it is not available online, and which I expect provides details of Dr. Morley Wilson’s career, is Dr. Alcock’s obituary notice for Dr. Morley Wilson:
Alcock, Frederick J., 1966

At the end of this blog posting I’ve provided what should be a fairly complete list of Dr. Morley Evans Wilson’s geologic papers and maps. Most were found in various editions of the Bibliography of North American Geology. I supplemented those papers and maps with those on the Government of Canada’s online GEOSCAN database, and with others found by searching on the internet. From that list I’ve selected the papers and maps that I believe to be of most interest to those in Lanark County. These are my selections.
