He published a Monograph of the British Fossil Crustacea, Order Merostomata (Palaeontograph. Soc. 1866–1878); A Monograph of Carboniferous Trilobites (Pal. Soc. 1883–1884), and many articles in scientific journals.[2] He was editor of the Geological Magazine from its commencement in 1864 and sole editor from July 1865 until the end of 1918.[1] Woodward's collection of shells, manuscripts and casts of fossil vertebrates can be found in the archives of the Cambridge University Museum of Zoology.[4]
Henry Woodward had two sons, both of whom died before he did; the eldest, Henry Page Woodward was also a noted geologist who worked in Australia. Henry's second son, Martin, was a student of T. H. Huxley alongside H. G. Wells[5] He was a promising zoologist, but was lost at sea when the boat in which he was traveling capsized in Ballinakill harbour.[6] Henry also had five daughters, two of whom - Alice B. Woodward and Gertrude Mary Woodward - worked in biological illustration,[1][7] although Alice was primarily known for her children's book illustrations.
