John Bevis
John Bevis (1695 – 1771) was an English doctor and astronomer. He is best known for discovering the Crab Nebula in 1731. From observations made with his telescope at Stoke Newington, Middlesex (Middlesex is an historic county in southeast England), he compiled a star catalogue (more of an atlas) entitled Uranographia Britannica around 1750.
