DUNLOP, William, Scottish educator, born in Scotland about 1650; died there in March 1700. He was educated at Glasgow University and was licensed as a minister, but took part in the insurrection of 1679, and subsequently joined the emigrants who colonized Carolina. Here he continued preaching at intervals till 1690, when he returned to Scotland, and was appointed by King William principal of Glasgow University, where he remained until his death, supporting its interests with dignity and zeal.
His son, Alexander Dunlop, born in Carolina in 1684; died in Scotland in 1742, became professor of Greek in Glasgow University, and afterward published a grammar of that language (1736) that was long held in esteem.
