Biography

Awarded the compensation on Coley estate in St Thomas-in-the-East and for a small claim in Vere jointly with Sir Tomkyns Hilgrove Turner (q.v.), the latter known to be executor and trustee of Frances Jennings (q.v.). Almost certainly the same William Davidson as the partner in Davidsons & Barkly, son of Henry Davidson. His role in these Jennings' claims is as yet unclear.
