MacLaurin, Colin. MacLaurin's physical dissertations, 2007 editor Ian Tweddle's introduction, page 1 (the Scottish mathematician Colin MacLaurin (1698-1746), regarded both in Britain and in continental Europe as one of the leading mathematicians of his time; born in February 1698 at Kilmodan, Glendaruel, Argyllshire; various forms of the name are found: MacLaurin, Maclaurin, McLaurin, M'Laurin; Tweddle prefers MacLaurin, which was certainly used by the mathematician) page 2 (strong support from Isaac Newton had been an important factor in securing MacLaurin's appointment at the University of Edinburgh; he remained there as professor of mathematics until the end of his life) page 3 (died at Edinburgh on 14 June 1746)
