The original paper on the Hartree method was published by W. Hartree and D. Hartree, who are father and son. The father's (William) obituary (which we read here), tells a bit of his story, and it is a very interesting one. William Hartree was a skilled engineer and mathematician who greatly influenced his son, Douglas Hartree, to pursue a career in science. Together, they developed the Hartree method, which became a cornerstone in quantum chemistry and computational physics.
