David Stewart Littlejohn
1822 – 1903
David Stewart Littlejohn was born at Forfar, Scotland, in 1822. After spending a few years in a solicitor's office there, he moved to Edinburgh to gain his legal qualification. He entered into partnership with Gershom Gourlay in the 1850s, under the name of Littlejohn & Gourlay, which lasted until 1864 when Gourlay rejoined his family shipbuilding business. In 1871 he formed a partnership with his cousin, Thomas Littlejohn, under the name of D. S. & T. Littlejohn. This was also subsequently disolved. He was next joined in partnership by his son, David Harrower Littlejohn and by F. R. Scott.
