William Baldwin (1779-1819) was an American physician and botanist. His greatest contributions were his correspondence with scientists; among them were William Darlington and Stephen Elliott. His collecting expeditions led him to Georgia, Florida and South America. While stationed in Georgia during the War of 1812 he traveled on foot, usually alone, into territory occupied by the Creek Indians to collect botanical specimens. The New York Botanical Garden holds in its Archives many of his journals, correspondence and plant classification studies.
