According to St Clair and GD website this was John Hepburn of Barfoot Haddington who later offered Godwin his landed property near Edinburgh as security for loans (1812). This seems probable for all entries coded to him on GD website from 1811 on, but I'm less sure about the three earlier entries above. John Hepburn farmer of Barefoot was certainly an enthusiastic radical who was prosecuted for a riot in Edinburgh on the day Maurice Margarot was to come to trial (Lloyds Evening Poast 17.2.1794).

There was a John Hepburn surgeon of Stockwell will PCC 1794 and his son John N Hepburn of 131 Fleet St and 9 Change Alley who was prosecuted for libel by Bonnor (qv). A Charles Hepburn surgeon of Wapping 1785. A Hepburn surgeon testified to the character of Tom Crossfield in 1796 (Oracle 12.5.1796)
