Duncan Farquharson Gregory (13 April 1813 – 23 February 1844), a Scottish mathematician, was the youngest son of James Gregory (1753–1821) and Isabella Macleod (1772–1847). ==Education==
He was born in Aberdeen and originally taught by his mother. In October 1825 he was sent to the Edinburgh Academy, and after two years of study spent a winter at a private academy in Geneva. While there his mathematical talent attracted attention, specifically geometry. On his return to Scotland, he attended classes at the Edinburgh University, working at chemistry, making experiments in polarised light, and advancing in the higher parts of mathematics, guided by Professor Wallace, his mentor. In October 1833 he commenced residence at Trinity College, Cambridge. He earned fifth wrangler in the tripos of 1837. He took the degrees of B.A. in 1838 and M.A. in 1841.〔''Graduati Cantabrigienses'', p. 133, 1846. 〕 He was elected fellow of Trinity College in October 1840.〔''The Mathematical and Other Writings of R.L. Ellis'', ed. by W. Walton, pp. 194-8, (Cambridge, 1863).〕
