Henry Middleton, born about 1662; settled as a Surgeon 1684 in the
parish of St. Olave's, Hart Street, and attended Robert Harley, Earl
of Oxford (who had married his cousin), when he was stabbed by
Guiscard 8 March 1711; his first marriage took place 16 May 1687
at St. Dionis Backchurch; died 14 May 1745.

[It is a mystery why his descendants did not claim the Baronetcy
after the death of Sir Hugh about 1757. A correspondent of the
Gent. Mag.,' 1792, p. 891, contended that they were under the
mistake that Simon (whose birth certificate was wanting) was older
than his brother Henry; but even in this case the only male heir
Hugh had already died (it is true, in obscurity). His fate was pro-
bably unknown to Henry's descendants, and Sir William the 2nd
Baronet's branch had ended in a scarcely less mysterious manner.
Simon's branch was probably not in a position to elucidate these
questions.]
