Robert Haldane
Robert Haldane (28 February 1764 – 12 December 1842) was a Scottish churchman.
==Biography==
Haldane was born in London, the son of James Haldane 2nd of Airthrey House, and his wife Katherine Duncan. His younger brother James Alexander Haldane was also a clergyman. Robert and James attended classes at Dundee Grammar School, the Royal High School in Edinburgh, and the University of Edinburgh.
In 1780 Robert joined HMS ''Monarch'' of which his maternal uncle, Adam Duncan, was in command. In the following year he was transferred to HMS ''Foudroyant''. He was on HMS ''Foudroyant'' under John Jervis during the night engagement in April 1782 with the French ship ''Pegase'' and greatly distinguished himself. Haldane was afterwards present at the relief of Gibraltar in September 1782. Some months later after the peace treaty of 1783 he left the Royal Navy.
Soon after leaving the Navy, he settled on his estate of Airthrey, near Stirling. After selling Airthrey House in 1798 to Robert Abercromby to obtain funding for his mission work, he bought a home at Auchengray, Lanarkshire in 1809.
