Abstract:

H. H. and C. S. Brimley were born in England and came with their parents to North Carolina in 1880. Although the article focuses on H. H., his brother became famous in his own right through his work in the Entomology Division of the North Carolina Department of Agriculture. Both brothers achieved international fame as the leading Southern naturalists of their day. H. H.'s fame rests on his work as a zoologist and his more than fifty years with the North Carolina Museum of Science. Under his leadership the museum grew into the one of the country's best-known of its type.
