Daniel, I thought your response looked familiar! I have been up all night, so I KNOW I am in a fog! I just got the following response from Isabel at the Senkenberg, so another option bit the dust. Is your information coming from the same source?
Dear Susan Manchester,
Thank you for sending further information about your request concerning the full name of Dr. H. Graf.
In the meantime my colleagues and me made extensive investigations about this in our archives. We checked the articles published by Senckenberg and made inquiries in old original correspondences between Dr. H. Graf and Dr. R. Mertens. In addition we checked our database and the historical chronics.
Unfortunatelly in all cases we found the first name was abbreviated (Dr. H. Graf). Always with an initial "H." as first name.
We are very sorry that we could not be further help in this matter.
Please do not hesitate to contact us in case of further questions.
With best regards
i.A. Isabell Clasen
