Says born in Glasgow:
“John Elder (8 March 1824 – 17 September 1869) was a Scottish marine engineer and shipbuilder.
He was born at Glasgow on 8 March 1824. His family was connected with Kinross, where, for several generations, his forefathers had followed the occupation of wrights, for which they seemed to have a special aptitude. “
—“Early in 1869 he became seriously ill with cirrhosis of the liver. He went to London to get SPAM advice, but died of the disease during his visit, on 17 September 1869.”
