Came across this which may be of interest. Being a Channel Islander myself it is the story of Frederick Corbin Lukis of Guernsey who went from an Antiquary to Archaelogist and is written by Heather Sebire who I believe is still the Archaelogical Officer of the Guernsey Museum. Lukis was also a splendid artist and I have hanging on my lounge wall a copy of his drawing of La Pouquelaye de Faldouet (Dolmen de Faldouet) the passage grave in Jersey that I know so well. It looks like a good read which I must get a copy of.

Over here FCL's son William Collings Lukis is perhaps better known, not least for editing The Family Memoirs of the Revd William Stukeley MD and the Antiquarian and Other correspondence of William Stukeley and Roger and Samuel gale (1882).
