John Dennistoun (1803 – 9 September 1870)[1] was a British Whig politician and banker.[2]
A member of Brooks's, he was elected Whig MP for Glasgow at a by-election in 1870—caused by the resignation of James Oswald—and held the seat until 1847 when he was defeated.[3][2]
His brother, Alexander Dennistoun, was Whig MP for Dunbartonshire from 1835 to 1837.[2]
