MLT Note: Possible - Timperley, C.H. (1842), p.759 1786, Died, John Farmer, a worthy and industrious compositor. He is particularly mentioned in the will of the elder Mr.Bowyer, with whom he had "long wrought", as that worthy old gentleman expresses it. He continued to work in the office of his old master till his death;; before which he had the comfort of having his name enrolled on the list of Mr.Bowyer's annuitants, in 1783. ---
