Sir John Macpherson, 1st Baronet

Sir John Macpherson, 1st Baronet (ca. 1745 – 12 January 1821), from Sleat, Isle of Skye, Scotland, was a Scottish administrator in India. He was the acting Governor-General of India from 1785 to 1786.
==Early life==

Macpherson was born in 1745 at Sleat in the Isle of Skye, where his father, John Macpherson (1710–1765), was minister.
His mother was Janet, daughter of Donald Macleod of Bernera. The father, son of Dugald Macpherson, minister of Duirinish, distinguished himself in classics at Aberdeen University (M.A. 1728, and D.D. 1761), and was minister of Barra in the presbytery of Uist (1734–42), and of Sleat (1742–65). He published ''Critical Dissertations on the Origin, Antiquities, Language, Government, Manners, and Religion of the Ancient Caledonians, their Posterity, the Picts, and the British and Irish Scots,'' London, 1768, and paraphrased the Song of Moses in Latin verse in ''Scots Magazine,'' vols. i. ix. xi. He upheld the authenticity of the poems assigned to Ossian, and Samuel Johnson declared that his Latin verse did him honour. Martin Macpherson (1743–1812), Dr. Macpherson's elder son, succeeded him at Sleat, and won Dr. Johnson's regard when the doctor visited the highlands.
John, the younger son, was educated at King's College, Aberdeen, and at the University of Edinburgh.
