English Book - Watson

A name whose bearers have achieved high honours and distinction through a colourfully rich and varied range of endeavours and pursuits, ‘Watson’ has ancient roots that stretch back through the dim mists of time to England’s Anglo-Saxon past, while many of its bearers have stamped an indelible mark on the historical record.

James Watson, born in 1854 in Salem, Massachusetts, worked as an assistant to Alexander Graham Bell, inventor of the telephone, while James Dewey Watson, along with Francis Crick of Cambridge University’s Cavendish Laboratory, found ‘the secret of life’ when they discovered the structure of the DNA molecule in the early 1950s.

In the highly competitive world of sport, Tom Watson is the American golfer who won the British Open in 1977 and the U.S. Open five years later.

Discover here the proud and inspiring tale of the Watsons of both yesteryear and today.
