He acquired several large plantations in Jamaica and Guyana, worked initially by enslaved Africans and later by indentured labour. == Early life == Born in Leith, in Midlothian, John Gladstones was the eldest son of the merchant Thomas Gladstones, and his wife, Helen Neilson. John was the second of the family's sixteen children. John Gladstones left school in 1777 at the age of 13, later describing his education as "a very plain one - to read English, a little Latin, writing and figures comprehending the whole."〔Sydney Checkland, “The Gladstones: A Family Biography, 1764–1851” (Cambridge University Press, 1971), pp. 10-11.〕 John was apprenticed to Alexander Ogilvy, manager of the ''Edinburgh Roperie and Sailcloth Company'' ropeworks in Leith. On completing his apprenticeship in 1781, he entered his father's corn and grain trading and provisioning business.〔Checkland, p. 11.〕 Thomas Gladstones was aware of the limitations of Leith, especially compared to the opportunities then opening up in Glasgow and in Liverpool. In 1784 he sent John to the German Baltic ports to buy grain, transacting his business through an interpreter. In 1786 he travelled to Liverpool, Manchester and London to sell his father's corn and sulphuric acid.〔Checkland, p. 13.〕 With his father's financial support, John Gladstones moved to Liverpool and went into partnership with the Liverpool grain merchants Edgar Corrie and Jackson Bradshaw. The business of ''Corrie, Gladstone & Bradshaw'', and the wealth of its members, soon grew very large. Once he had settled in Liverpool, Gladstones dropped the final "s" from his surname, although this was not legally regularised until 1835.〔Checkland, p. 14.〕 From 1790 to 1791 John Gladstone spent a year in the United States, travelling to New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Maryland to purchase wheat, maize, flax-seed, hemp, tobacco, timber, leather, turpentine and tar.〔Checkland, p. 24.〕 John Gladstone lived on Bold Street from the time he moved to Liverpool until after his first marriage. Although he was a devout Presbyterian, there was no Scottish church in Liverpool and Gladstone and the other Scots resident in Liverpool worshiped at Renshaw Street Unitarian Chapel. In 1792, Gladstone, William Ewart and some other Scots built a Scottish chapel on Oldham Street and the Caledonian School opposite it for the education of their children.〔Checkland, p. 31.〕 Gladstone also had a new home built for himself at 62 Rodney Street, Liverpool, at the cost of £1,570. It was finished in September 1793.〔Checkland, p. 33.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sir John Gladstone, 1st Baronet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
