SOCIETY FOR CONSTITUTIONAL INFORMATION: Roger Prescott of Devonshire Square proposed member 12.11.1782 by William Falkener 2nded Thomas Hinton Burley Oldfield
How I hate not being able to find anything definite about someone. Land Tax for 1781 and 1782 recorded a Roger Prescott at Cavendish Court, Devonshire Square. This doesn't seem likely to me to have been the Roger Prescott brazier at Old Dock, Liverpool (Baileys directory 1781) and brazier of Liverpool and mortgager, Plato Denny merchant mortgagee (SunFire 1784). This was likely the Roger Prescott of St Peters Liverpool who married Ann Denny at Frodsham Cheshire 26.2.1770 and perhaps the Roger son of Roger Prescott born 16.12.1741 bapt 3.1.1742 St Mary Bury Lancs, and he perhaps died 1786. There were several other Roger Prescotts around in Lancashire then, but no clues in London area
