Jump to
Dr. Andrew Jukes (17 December 1774–10 November 1821) was a surgeon of the East India Company. He arrived in Iran in 1808 as a member Sir Harford Jones’ diplomatic mission. Jukes stayed in Iran until his death (probably due to Asiatic cholera) in 1821. He is buried in the Armenian Monastery of Sourp Amenaprgich in New Julfa neighborhood of Isfahan. He vaccinated Tehrani children against smallpox in 1813, in the hopes of stemming the ravages of an epidemic. His effort met with little success. He had one daughter Laura (d. 1836) who settled in Canada.
