Biography

John Dill, the eldest son of Rev. Richard Dill of Knowhead and Grace Cochrane, became a doctor in London, England. The Burke-derived family record dates his birth to May 31, 1802 and credits him with Master of Arts and Master of Surgery qualifications from Glasgow University in Scotland.

His medical career ended while he was still young. The same family record reports that he died unmarried on March 8, 1832, aged twenty-nine, from typhus. It also attributes to him a work entitled Empiricism.
