Exerpt from: Riegert, Paul W. Entomologists of Alberta. Entomological Society of Canada, 1989.
Carr, Frederick Stephen (1881- 1934): moved west from Ontario and taught school at Innisfail from 1904 to 1909, then in Edmonton from 1909 to 1919. Thereafter he became a school inspector moving to Medicine Hat in 1921. Carr’s entomological interest was beetles, amassing 100,000 specimens from Alberta and publishing the first list of these insects from the province. He also collected Lepidoptera in the Medicine Hat and Cypress Hills regions. After his death the collection was donated to the University of Alberta in 1939 by his son John, and daughter-in-law Bertha who have continued to collect the beetles and butterflies of the province.
