John Whitlock (fl. 1683–1695)

WHITLOCK (JOHN), bookseller in London, near Stationers' Hall, 1683–95. His name first appears in the Term Catalogue for Mich. 1683. [T.C. 11. 39.] In 1684 he advertised a novel, The Grand Vizier [T.C. II. 96], and then he disappears from the Catalogue for ten years. In 1694 he reappears as selling The Parish Clerk's Vade Mecum. [T.C. II. 520.] In 1695 he issued Solon Secundus: or, some defects in the English Laws [B.M. 8122. aaa. 20 (15)]. and in the same year An exact Journal of the victorious Expedition of the Confederate Fleet ... under ... Admiral Russell. [T.C. II. 557.] Whitlock appears to have died shortly after this, and he was succeeded by Elizabeth Whitlock, presumably his widow.
