Henry McLagan
Fellow
Date of Fellowship admission: 7/February/1786
Henry McLagan earned his MD from the University of Glasgow in 1784, and became a Fellow of this College in 1786. He held a practice in Culross in Fife, and disappears from the records circa 1790. There is also a Henry McLagan working in Spa, Belgium, from about 1791. However it is unclear if that is the same man, or doctor of the same name. He does not appear to be closely related to David MacLagan the future President of this College.
