SOCIETY FOR CONSTITUTIONAL INFORMATION: Joseph Milner Esq of Aldermanbury proposed member 4.5.1792 by John Wheeler 2nded Bush (Michael or Atkinson?)

SunFire 1785 John Allcock & Joseph Milner warehousemen 11 King St Cheapside / World 8.3.1790 Joseph Milner, grocer, of Oxford St, bankrupt, certificate 1.5.1790 / Public Advertiser 27.1.1794 Joseph Milner and Edward Davies, of Noble Lane, Cheapside, haberdashers, bankrupt / Times 25.2.1794 furniture for sale of Joseph Milner of 37 City Rd warehouseman a bankrupt /. List of witnesses for treason trials Morning Post 16.10.1794 Joseph Milner warehouseman Aldermanbury /.John Allcock's will PCC 1802 warehouseman of Aldermanbury made no mention of Milner.

Are the haberdasher and the warehouseman above the same person? Later bankrupt Joseph Milners were a baker of Haymarket (Morning Post 15.10.1801) and a druggist of Gt Yarmouth (Morning Post 9.7.1802). Other Joseph Milners in London were the apprentice in 1763 to Monk & Barey coach harness makers Whitechapel, and the cutler of Long Lane will PCC 1820. A Joseph Milner merchant, in partnership with Valentine Chapman, and with an agent in Gibraltar, was an Old Bailey witness 28.10.1812, and Joseph Milner & Valentine Chapman merchants of Ironmonger Lane went bankrupt in 1816, all the papers of which bankruptcy are preserved at Nat Arch B 3/3379. All the above have left me with no clear identification of the SCI member
