Sources

T71/857 St Ann No. 118; T71/1181 St Ann No. 39 identifies him as 'gentleman' of 43 Bedford Row, in another claim related to Mr and Mrs Robert Johnston. The Thomas Bland of St Pancras who had married Mary Vredenburg in 1831 was possibly this man: Mary Lawrence Vredenburg (q.v.) appears in the compensation records as the guardian of Mary Vredenburg and was very probably her mother.
