His association with the Royal Family and the many preferments bestowed upon him is mentioned in the Memoirs of T. S. Whalley, and explained as having arisen through a remarkable incident connected with the death of his father, Capt. Blomberg, then in the West Indies (see St John's Coll. Adm., IV). But according to other authorities he is said to have been a natural son of George III, and to have taken his mother's married name. In 1812 he became the owner of the Manor of Kirkby Misperton by a grant from George, Prince of Wales. Latimer in his Annals of Bristol, 19th Century, says: it was generally agreed that in features he strikingly resembled the Royal Family. Died Mar. 23, 1847, aged 85, at Cripplegate.
