Keyes saw extensive action in battles in the Eastern Theater. He ran into "military" tactics problems and retried early in 1864 to avoid any problems with the Union high command.

I think you are confusing Darwin's father, Robert, with his grandfather, Erasmus. His grandfather is the one who wrote the poem suggesting the transmutation of species, but he did not really posit a mechanism and he put forward no evidence in support of his assertions. So, Erasmus did not have a theory. Several men had parts and pieces of the evolutionary puzzle before and contemporaneously with Charles Darwin, but Darwin's work was complete ( for the time ) and supported well with myriad lines of converging evidence. Even Alfred Russel Wallace, who was the co-discoverer of natural selection, did not have the full story Darwin did.
