Dr. Andrew Jukes (??–1821) was a surgeon of the East India Company. He arrived in Iran in 1808 as a member Sir Harford Jones’ diplomatic mission. Jukes stayed in Iran until his death (probably due to Asiatic cholera) in 1821. He is buried in the Armenian Monastery of Sourp Amenaprgich in New Julfa neighborhood of Isfahan.〔 A. A.
