John Millan

[3] MILLAN deserving of the warmest praise, As full of worth and virtue as of days; Brave, open, gen'rous, 'tis in him we find, A solid judgment, and a taste refined.

Nature's most choice productions are his care, And them t'obtain no cost or pains does spare, A character so amiable and bright, Inspires the Muse with rapture and delight:

[4] A newspaper death notice of 23 March 1782 reads, "Yesterday died, at his house at Charing-cross, aged 81, Mr Millan, military bookseller, supposed to have been the strongest man in the kingdom.

"[5] John Millan and his wife, Mary, had a daughter, Charity, born 16 January 1728, St. James, Westminster.

[9] Their son, Millan Egerton, was born 8 October 1765, baptised at St John the Evangelist, Smith Square, Westminster, 3 November 1765.
