Special thanks to Mr.J, the following notes/changes are conducted on Apr 9, 2022:

There were some duplicate names in the list. These names are now merged.
Most of the IQs in this list were in the Stanford-Binet scale (standard deviation=16), but some of them were in the Cattell scale (standard deviation=24). For the comparison to be fair, everyone needs to be placed in the same scale. The scales now are in Stanford-Binet scale.
Note: Some values are estimated in the 1926 Catherine Cox study and there is much controversy about being underestimates/overestimates.
Note: Some cases were IQs measured in childhood and extrapolated to adults IQs by the mental age formula.
