JAMES ERNEST McLAUGHLIN, F. A. A.
James Ernest McLaughlin is one of the foremost accountants of Minneapolis and is
the founder of McLaughlin & Company, public accountants. A native of England, he
was born in Southport, Lancashire, on the 8th of December, 1880, a son of T. P.
and Marie Elizabeth Trilleau McLaughlin, the former of English descent and the
latter of French. His father, Mr. T. P. McLaughlin, was engaged in the importing
business and resided in England until his death.
James Ernest McLaughlin received his education in the schools of England and
studied law for five years under John Hunt, a prominent attorney at law. He then
took up accountancy, both public and private, continuing in this line, in which
he is considered an expert and has served a large clientele since coming to the
United States in 1910. He has the following degrees: Fellow Associated
Accountants, London, and is a fellow and member of the Central Association of
Accountancy of London, England, and of the Illinois Institute of Accountants.
Mr. McLaughlin was married to Miss Susan Bond, a daughter of Mr. George Bond.
Mr. and Mrs. McLaughlin are members of the Episcopal church and Mr. McLaughlin
is a member of the Masonic fraternity and the Knights of Pythias. He is a strict
adherent of the republican party and the principles for which it stands.
Although the greater part of his time and attention is devoted to his business,
he is ever cognizant of the duties and responsibilities as well as the
privileges of citizenship.
