In 1909, the Smithsonian teamed with Col. Theodore Roosevelt on an expedition to Africa to collect specimens for the Institution's new Natural History Museum. The team collected an estimated 11,400 animal specimens from what is now Kenya, the Democratic Republic of Congo and up to the Nile river into Sudan. Edgar Alexander Mearns (1856 - 1916) joined the expedition as a retired US Army surgeon and medical officer. Help us transcribe these field notes that document specimens 1 to 1858, noting collection locations, landmarks, and more.
