William Chester Minor, also known as W. C. Minor (June 22, 1834 – March 26, 1920), was an American army surgeon and who was held in a psychiatric hospital in England from 1872 to 1910 after, haunted by his paranoia, he shot George Merrett, whom Minor believed to have broken into his room. In later life he became a contributor to the Oxford English Dictionary: he was one of the project's most effective volunteers, reading through his large personal library of antiquarian books and compiling quotations that illustrated the way particular words were used.
