Abstract:
Biographical data on George Huntington, the 'discoverer' of Huntington's Chorea and George Sumner Huntington--a well-known American anatomist of the late 19th century and the first decades of the 20th century--have been confused repeatedly. This paper elucidates their mutual relationship and corrects biographical inaccuracies concerning George Huntington and George Sumner Huntington.
