MacNeven (also seen as MacNivin), a physician, was one of the leaders of the abortive rebellion of 1798 in his native Ireland. After a few years in prison and then in Europe, MacNeven emigrated to America. In New York he resumed his medical practice and began teaching clinical chemistry in the College of Physicians and Surgeons. In 1809 MacNeven was appointed to the chair of chemistry and, later, of materia medica, still at the College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York.
