Alexander Newton Winchell (2 March 1874 - 7 June 1958) was an American geologist who pioneered spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic studies on minerals. He wrote an influential textbook, the Elements of optical mineralogy which went into several editions. Winchell married Clare Edith Christello in 1898 and they had five children, several of whom continued in geology. After the death of Clare in 1932, he married his grandniece Florence Mabel Sylvester (granddaughter of Alexander Winchell). He received the Roebling medal of the Mineralogical Society of America in 1955.

  • Alexander Newton Winchell (* 2. März 1874 in Minneapolis, Minnesota; † 7. Juni 1958 in New Haven, Connecticut) war ein US-amerikanischer Geologe und Mineraloge. Er war der Sohn von Newton Horace Winchell. Winchell war ab 1900 Professor an der , von 1907 bis 1944 an der University of Wisconsin, 1948/49 an der University of Virginia und 1949/50 in New York. Er lieferte bedeutende Arbeiten über Silicate und über die Zusammenhänge zwischen den chemischen und optischen Eigenschaften kristalliner Verbindungen. Für seine Verdienste wurde er 1955 mit der Roebling-Medaille der Mineralogical Society of America ausgezeichnet. Sein Sohn Horace Winchell (1915–1993) war ebenfalls ein bekannter Geologe, Professor an der Yale University. (de)

He wrote an influential textbook, the Elements of optical mineralogy which went into several editions. Winchell was born in Minneapolis to Newton Horace and Charlotte Sophia. He was educated at the University of Minnesota with a BS in 1896 and MS in 1897 under Charles Peter Berkey. He then studied in Paris under Alfred Lacroix receiving a DSc in 1900. He then joined the Montana School of Mines and later the University of Wisconsin. He worked on applications of X-ray crystallography to mineralogy, working with Linus Pauling, W.H. Taylor and W.L. Bragg. He also consulted for the US Geological Survey, the American Cyanamid Company and was a visiting professor at the University of Virginia and Columbia University. Winchell married Clare Edith Christello in 1898 and they had five children, several of whom continued in geology. After the death of Clare in 1932, he married his grandniece Florence Mabel Sylvester (granddaughter of Alexander Winchell).
