Biography

Frederick Charles Lincoln was born in 1892 and became a pioneering ornithologist for the U.S. Biological Survey, leading the Bird Banding Laboratory and devising methods that continue to guide the study of migratory birds.

He balanced scientific rigor with a servant's heart, knowing that every recovered band told a story of resilience; Arlington honors him among those whose contributions advanced the nation's knowledge and stewardship.
