Thomas Henry Huxley lived in England all his life. He was born in Ealing, London, England on May 4, 1825. Seventy years later at Eastbourne, Sussex, England on June 29 of 1895 when he died of an illness.
Thomas Huxley was an early supporter of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection and pushed for it's acceptance among other scientists and the public. Huxley was a biologist who also study in the fields of zoology and paleontology. His most famous writing was published in 1863 and entitled Evidence on Man's Place in Nature. Through close communications with Darwin he was able to point out flaws in Darwin's theory while still being a supporter. People who do believe in both micro- and macro-evolution chose to follow Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection which Huxley helped perfect and further support it with his own writing.
