A catalogue of notable Middle Templars, with brief biographical notices/Blore, Thomas
Admitted 17 November, 1792.
Eldest son of John Blore of Ashborne, Derbyshire, where he was born on 1 Dec. 1764. He was never called to the Bar, but going to reside in Hertfordshire, he employed himself in collections for the topography of that county, which were subsequently embodied in Clutterbuck's History. He subsequently resided at Stamford, where he edited for some time the Stamford News. He died in London, 10 Nov. 1818, and was buried in Paddington Church, where a monument describes him as of the Honourable Society of the Middle Temple, and a member of the Antiquarian Society.
Besides the papers above alluded to, Mr. Blore published a number of treatises on topographical subjects, particularly relating to the Counties of Derby, Lincoln, Rutland, and Northamptonshire.
