George Gabriel Stokes (scientist) gave us Stoke’s Law, he was born in Skreen Co. Sligo in 1819 and among many other achievements he discovered the role of haemoglobin in carrying oxygen in blood. He was president of the Royal Society – 6-9 Carlton House Terrace, St. James’s, London SW1Y 5AG – from 1885 to 1890.
