Thomas ATTWOOD or ATWOOD d.1763?
Biographical Note
Son of Anthony Atwood of Elmbridge, Worcestershire, gentleman. BA Oriel College, Oxford 1693; MD Gonville and Caius College Cambridge 1696. He was admitted at the University of Leiden in 1702 to pursue his medical studies. After that he presumably practised as a physician in Worcestershire; it is not clear whether he was the oculist of that name who examined Samuel Johnson in his youth, whose will was proved in Birmingham in 1763, who is described as the son of George Attwood of Bevere.
Books
Attwood used an engraved armorial bookplate (Franks 945); the extent and disposition of his library is not known.
