Book excerpt: The addresses made to the Royal Society of Edinburgh, and theInstitution of Civil Engineers, at the opening meetings of thesession--1851, contained obituary notices of Robert Stevenson. Thelate Alan Stevenson, his eldest son, also wrote a short Memoir of hisfather, which was printed for private circulation.But Robert Stevenson's long practice as a Civil Engineer--theimportant works he executed--and the valuable contributions he made toEngineering and Scientific literature, seem to me to require a fullernotice of his life than has hitherto been given.This has been attempted in the following Memoir, which will be foundto consist of extracts from Mr. Stevenson's Professional Reports--ofnotes from his Diary--and of communications to Scientific Journals andSocieties, between the years 1798 and 1843, when he retired from activepractice.These papers embrace a wide field of Engineering, includingLighthouses, Harbours, Rivers, Roads, Railways, Ferries, Bridges, andother cognate subjects.Some of them describe Engineering practice which is now obsolete, butnot on that account, I think, uninteresting to such modern Engineers ashave regard for the antiquities of their Profession.Some of them, I am aware, can only be appreciated by those who arespecially interested in the city of Edinburgh.All of them will, I venture to think, be found worthy of preservationas interesting Engineering records of an era that has passed away. Itformed no part of my duty to criticise them, in the light of modernEngineering, and, unaltered in form of expression or statement ofopinion, they are now reproduced as they came from my father's pen.

Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - From the thirteenth century onwards, the name, under the various disguises of Stevinstoun, Stevensoun, Stevensonne, Stenesone, and Stewinsoune, spread across Scotland from the mouth of the Firth of Forth to the mouth of the Firth of Clyde. Four times at least it occurs as a place-name. There is a parish of Stevenston in Cunningham; a second place of the name in the Barony of Bothwell in Lanark; a third on Lyne, above Drochil Castle; the fourth on the Tyne, near Traprain Law. Stevenson of Stevenson (co. Lanark) swore fealty to Edward I in 1296, and the last of that family died after the Restoration. Stevensons of Hirdmanshiels, in Midlothian, rode in the Bishops' Raid of Aberlady, served as jurors, stood bail for neighbours - Hunter of Polwood, for instance - and became extinct about the same period, or possibly earlier. A Stevenson of Luthrie and another of Pitroddie make their bows, give their names, and vanish. And by the year 1700 it does not appear that any acre of Scots land was vested in any Stevenson.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biographical Sketch of the Late Robert Stevenson: Civil Engineer Robert Stevenson was born at Glasgow on the 8th June 1772, and died at Edinburgh on the 12th July 1850, in the seventy-ninth year of his age. His father, Alan Stevenson, was a partner in a West India House in Glasgow, and died in the island of St Christopher, while on a visit to his brother, who managed the business abroad. His only son Robert, the subject of this memoir, was then an infant, and, with his mother, was ultimately left in circumstances of the greatest difficulty; for the same epidemic fever which deprived him of his father carried off his uncle also, at a time when his loss operated most disadvantageously on the business which he had superintended, and very many years elapsed before any funds in which my father had an interest were realised.
