Rev Dr Andrew Thomson DD FRSE was a Scottish minister of the United Presbyterian Church and noted biographer and lecturer, well known for his books on the lives of pre-eminent ministers, and for his book on his travels in the Holy Land and noted for his preface to the Scottish poet, Robert Pollok's "Tales of the Covenanters".
Thomson should not be confused with Rev Andrew Thomson of the Free Church of Scotland, also of Edinburgh, who was prominent in the Disruption of 1843. This Thomson was known as of "Broughton Place" and the other one was of "Free St. George's".
