We are not apprised of exactly where Jekyll was born but can infer that he was born in London. We are, however, told that he was born in the 1800s.

I was born in the year 18— to a large fortune, endowed besides with excellent parts, inclined by nature to industry, fond of the respect of the wise and good among my fellowmen, and thus, as might have been supposed, with every guarantee of an honourable and distinguished future.
