Father of Sir William Jackson (see above). He is mentioned by Morley (1899) p.2, in connection with a specimen of Calosoma sycophanta: 'Mr Kirby mentions that one was taken... by a young lady at Southwold, which is now in the cabinet of W.J.Hooker. This is Joseph Hooker of Norwich, who first took Pterostichus aterrimus Payk. in Britain'. The NHM purchased 100 beetles at an auction in 1844 which appears to have been of this Joseph Hooker's collection. (Chalmers Hunt (1976), p.87, records a sale taking place on 2 and 3 May 1844 at Stevens and including foreign as well as British insects). (MD 5/03)
