Back in 1809 on this day (a month ago – I was never any good at anniversaries…), Charles Darwin was born.
As you probably know, Darwin was the father of evolution…
Plus he had a great beard.
Speaking of great beards, it turns out Abraham Lincoln was born on the same day.
I wonder if anyone else born on February 12th 1809 had fantastic facial hair?
