Notes |
- John Willan (the nephew) was, in 1745, a hostler at the Lion Inn, Barnet. Described at the time of his death as a 'great horse-contractor, late occupier of the Bull and Mouth', he had by then accumulated ?200,000 from the acquisition of horses for the artillery at the request of the Duke of Cumberland 'on his return from Scotland'. John died at Hatton Garden about 17 July 1822.
It seems likely that he was the owner of land in Green St, London, around a yard called North Row Mews on Horwood's map of 1794, not far from stables for the Second Troop of Horse Guards (the Second Life Guards).
