Biography:
GARLAND, R. T. (fl 1830-34)
His first names are not known and no public records have been located that are likely matches for this author. A Robert Garland, son of Samuel and Jane Garland, was baptised in Taunton, Somerset, on 25 Dec. 1810; this could be him. Given the religious content of his one published book, it is possible that he and his family were non-conformists. The Judgment Day, which went to numerous editions, gives his address as Harmony Lane in Taunton. The numbering on the editions of his book is puzzling. (ancestry.co.uk 27 Aug. 2024) SR
