Notes:

From http://www.kewguild.org.uk/media/pdfs/v3s25p399-1.pdf
JAMES A. GAMMIE.
THE honourable roll of the Kew Guild contains few names of members whose association with Kew is of longer standing, and no name more deserving of honour by its members than that of the President-elect for 1918.
Born on November 12, 1839, at Kingcausie, in the county of Kincardine. Mr. Gammie served his apprenticeship at Drum Castle, Aberdeenshire, where his father had charge of the gardens for 45 years.
At the age of 17 he came south, working successively in the gardens of Stapleton Park, York*; Messrs. J.Veitch, Chelsea, and Stockwood Park, near Luton, entering Kew in the spring of 1861, among his colleagues of that year being Mr. W. B. Hemsley and Mr. J.K.Jackson.
During a stay of four and a half years Mr. Gammie's work was wholly confined to the decorative and flower garden department under Mr. Craig.
After this period of service at Kew, our President-elect was specially selected by the Secretary of State for India, in August 1865, to serve as Manager of the young and struggling Cinchona Plantation in Sikkim.
The task he had to undertake was difficult. The cultural requirements of the various Cinchonas had still to some extent to be ascertained ; the soil was indifferent; the climate was not ideal.
The uphill work called both for knowledge and judgment as to what was feasible and for courage to attempt what might seem impossible.
If the hour ever produces the man this happened when Mr. Gammie devoted his talents to the problem, and to hini is largely due the success that, in the face of difficulties which might have disheartened the bravest, has rewarded the effort to produce Cinchona Bark on a commercial scale in the Government Plantations in Sikkim.
This, however, was but half the task that confronted the Cinchona Department. The other was to separate from the harvested bark the alkaloids it contained and to do this economically and on a commercial scale.
In this, too, Mr. Gammie took an important share. Before a method of separating quinine had been devised, a process was adopted for the extraction as a mixed febrifuge of all the alkaloids in the bark.
This process was worked by Mr. Gammie from 1879 onwards and called for the same skill and thoroughness that had marked his work as a planter.
When Mr. Wood, the quinologist, who designed this process, retired in 1879, he and Mr. Gammie still kept the further aim of separating pure quinine in view.
At last Mr. Wood invented, in his private laboratory in London, an admirable process which Mr. Gammie perfected in the factory in Sikkim.
It is on official record that without Mr. Wood the process would net have been invented; without Mr. Gammie it would not have been successfully applied to manufacture.
For his share in this great work Mr. Gammie, then Resident Manager of the Government Cinchona Plantations, was promoted to be Deputy Superintendent of the Cinchona Department.
But for him the humane object of the Indian Government when they introduced Cinchona to the East, which was to place quinine within reach of the poorest, could not have been realised so early and so effectively as it was.
After eleven years spent in working and improving this process Mr. Gammie retired in 1897.
If the thoroughness with which Mr. Gammie's work as a planter was done made the growing of Cinchona a success, it was this same quality that enabled him to prepare cinchona febrifuge and, later still, to separate quinine.
The capacity for mastering his subject was accompanied by a corresponding ability to prevent his subject from mastering him.
This double gift was nowhere more apparent than in the studies of his leisure hours, which were devoted to natural history.
None have ever made more use of their opportunities in this fleld than our President-elect, and few'have acquired a wider knowledge of the subject as a whole, the method followed being that of thoroughly mastering some particular branch of the fauna of British Sikkim before seriously undertaking the study of another.

Aberdeen Journal 17 April 1924 page 8 (obviously based on above).
Mr James A. Gammie. Distinguished worker quinine plantations.
Our obituary notices to-day include the name of Mr James A. Gammie a distinguished Aberdeenshire man, who for 32 years was Superintendent of the Government Cinchona (Quinine) Plantations in Sikkim.
Mr Gammie served his apprenticeship at Drum Castle, where for 45 years his father was gardener.
After a period in Kew Gardens, he was specially selected, in 1865, by the Secretary of State for India, to serve as manager of the young and struggling Chinchona Plantation in Sikkim.
He had a difficult task, for the cultural requirements of the various Chinchonas had still to some extent to be ascertained; the soil as indifferent; the climate was not ideal.
But Mr Gammie surmounted these difficulties, and to him was due the success that made it possible to produce Cinchona bark on a commercial scale in the Government plantations there.
To him also, in a great measure, belongs the credit for the successful experiments to separate from the harvested bark the alkaloids it contained, and to do this economically on a commercial basis.
But for him, it has been stated, the humane efforts of the Indian Government to place quinine within the reach of the poorest could not have been realised so early and so effectively as it was.
Mr Gammie retired in 1897, and, since then, had resided in London, devoting his leisure to natural history.
In 1918 he was honoured by the Kew Guild by being elected president of that society.
He was the most modest of men (writes a correspondent), shy and retiring, and loving the quite way of life, but was great in friendship and hospitality.
He kept us his interests in nature study to the last, and his life was full of devotion to the best things.
The Church of Scotland station of Kalimpong never had better friends than Mr Gammie, his wife and their like-minded family.
These survive him, and also his two sisters, Misses Gammie, Lochwood, Drumoak.

Notes:

There is a 1923 drowning death in Coburg, Melbourne that likely is him.
Following is a report from the newspaper, Argus (Melbourne, Vic. : 1848 - 1957), Tuesday 4 September 1923, page 4
FARMER CRITICISED.
Leaves Body in River.
Having been informed that the body of a man had been seen in the Yarra at Templestowe, John Cox, a farmer, continued milking his cows. He went to look for the body on the following day. His action was strongly criticised by the deputy coroner (Mr. Phillips) at the morgue yesterday, when an inquiry was held into the death of Eben Gammie, aged 67 years, who was found drowned on August 27. Cox said in evidence that he was milking cows at about 5 o'clock on the afternoon of Sunday, August 26, when he was told that there was the body of a man in the river. He told a young man to inform the police, and continued milking his cows. On the following morning he went to the river and found the body of Gammie.
Mr. Phillips. - It is extraordinary that a man hearing of a body in the river does not do something. Probably you were more interested in your cows, and had they been in the river you would have gone.
Continuing, Mr. Phillips said that one would think a man would inform someone else even if he were too busy to take a human being out of the water. It seemed a clear case of suicide. He returned a verdict of "found drowned," there being no evidence to show how Gammie got into the river.

George Alexander Gammie (July 1864 - 5 May 1935) was a British botanist who worked in India. He worked on a variety of plant groups including those of economic interest such as cotton and contributed to the knowledge of plants used during famines in India.

George Gammie was born to Mary n?ee Parrell and her husband James Alexander Gammie (12 November 1839-13 April 1924) who was superintendent in the cinchona plantations at Mungpu. James had come to India and replaced Robert Scott at the Calcutta botanical garden in 1866. Later he moved to Mungpu and John Scott was given the post of Curator of the Calcutta Garden. George Gammie grew up at Mungpu and became interested in the plants of the region. He worked as an assistant in Mungpu from 1881 to 1899 and went on collecting tours to Sikkim and the Brahmaputra Valley. He was placed in charge of the Saharanpur Garden around 1891-92 and the Lloyd Botanic Garden at Darjeeling around 1893 and was for some time between 1893 and 1896, a Curator at the Calcutta Botanic Gardens. He joined the Government of Bombay in 1899 and worked with the Botanical Survey of India at Poona working as Economic Botanist from 1904-1908. Gammie's final posting was as Imperial Cotton Specialist, a position he held till his retirement in 1919. He published a monograph on The Indian Cottons in 1907.

He was elected Fellow of the Linnean Society in 1899. Noted as a genial, slow-moving man of massive build he was a favourite at conferences of the Indian Imperial Board of Agriculture. He died at his home in Chiswick, Brentford, Middlesex.
