John Biddulph

John Biddulph, banker with Cocks, Biddulph of Charing Cross. Together with Samuel Pepys Cockerell (q.v.), Biddulph was awarded the compensation for 10 estates belonging to James Colyear Dawkins (q.v.) in Jamaica. Although the two men are described as trustees in the Registers of Claims, Butler believes that they were mortgagees.
