Bit more...

Highly regarded by other engineers, he contributed to the Lunar Society and
founded the Society of Civil Engineers in 1771. He coined the term civil
engineers to distinguish them from military engineers graduating from the
Royal Military Academy at Woolwich. After his death, the Society was renamed
the Smeatonian Society, and was a forerunner of the Institution of Civil
Engineers, established in 1818.

His pupils included canal engineers James Brindley and William Jessop and
architect and engineer Benjamin Latrobe.

He died after suffering a stroke while walking in the garden of his family
home at Austhorpe, and was buried in the parish church at Whitkirk, West
Yorkshire.

John Smeaton lends his name to a high school in the suburbs of Leeds,
adjacent to the Pendas Fields estate near Austhorpe. He is also mentioned in
the song I Predict a Riot (as a symbol of a more dignified and peaceful
epoch in Leeds history) by the Kaiser Chiefs, who are natives of Leeds.

Sorry Thad, I didn't even understand your post. I assumed you were drunk.

Oh: "ODP". You were! (Didn't get that bit until now).

As a former member of the Institution of Civil Engineers, you would think that
I'd know all about this Smeaton fella, wouldn't you, but I didn't.

Lyrics from the Kaiser Chiefs' "I Predict a Riot" that I didn't
understand.
