Baklow (Thomas Worthington), 1823 (?)-56 
The subject of this notice, antiquary and naturalist, was 
the only son of William Worthington Barlow, of Cranage, 
Cheshire. Educated for the legal profession, he became a 
member of Gray’s Inn in May 1843, and was called to the 
Bar, June 14, 1848. In the same year he was elected a 
Fellow of the Linnean Society, and was also an early member 
of the Wernerian Club. He afterwards resided at Man- 
chester, where he practised as a special pleader and con- 
veyancer. In April 1856 he accepted the appointment of 
Queen’s Advocate at Sierra Leone, but succumbed to that 
fatal climate within four months, dying at Freetown, August 1, 
1856. 
In addition to the undernoted chart, Barlow published 
several historical works on Cheshire, also the Mystic Number : 
A Glance at the System of Nature (1852).
