People Of Kincardine-on-Forth
Those and such-as-those...
- A number of people either born in Kincardine or having moved in to the town later in life made a significant impact on world history, and the pages below are dedicated to those people.
- Probably the most widely known person with an association to Kincardine is James Dewar, the son of a local Inn Keeper who went on to become one of the most important chemists of his generation and, in the process invented one of the most useful devices too - the vacuum flask, better known as the Thermos. But there are a number of other people such as Admiral Lord Keith and Sir James Wylie who, while less well known than Dewar, had just as profound an influence in their own areas of specialty.
