Further Notes
Benjamin Barker [ST/3:4709] was first apprenticed to Charles King, bookseller, of Westminster Hall before being turned-over to his father [also Benjamin Barker] who was a Citizen & Haberdasher. Plomer, 1668-1725, p.20 lists a Benjamin Barker, bookseller, apparently in partnership with a C.King at this address. It has been assumed that the elder Barker was the Haberdasher and he has been numbered accordingly. This entry in Plomer and that in Plomer, 1726-1775, pp.15-6 appears to be conflating the father and son. --- Benjamin Barker's name is found in the Poll-Book for the City and Liberty of Westminster for 1749 [Plomer]. ---
