Bookseller, stationer, globe and map publisher, and geographer. Born in Edinburgh 12 Sep 1802 and baptised at St. Cuthbert 18 Sep 1802, the son of Andrew Lothian and his wife Margaret Hogg. Described as a geographer on the 1841 census return, when living at Baxter’s Place. His premises in St. Andrew Square, originally next door to those of John Thomson , are depicted in the print East Side of St. Andrew’s Square, Edinburgh, engraved by James Johnstone from an original study by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd published in 1830 as part of the series known as “Modern Athens! Displayed in a series of views: or, Edinburgh in the nineteenth century” (1829-1831) — Lothian was the Edinburgh agent for the publication. Described as a map-publisher in directories until 1838, but subsequently as a geographer on the 1841 census return and elsewhere. He shared his premises in Baxter’s Place 1841-1842 with Thomas Brumby Johnston and was perhaps working with or for William Johnston and Alexander Keith Johnston (“W. & A. K. Johnston”) in this latter portion of his career. He died 11 May 1846, his personal estate (valued at £95) consisting of a three-quarter share of copyrights, copper-plates and sheets on hand of his maps and atlases, some of which were published posthumously by others.
