Governor of Christ's Hospital [? if this one, ditto dates, which do seem to fit]
and/or
He was David Laing, and was known from his will to have been a practising corkcutter in Great Tower Street, London, in 1794. He was also a cork merchant, and owned several properties as well as stock.
Subsequently, in the Post Office Directory for London, 1808, Laing & Sons were described as Cork-merchants and Manufacturers and their address was 1 Gt. Tower St. London. I imagine the actual cutting was done by those who were employed by Laing & Son. The son's name was Thomas Josiah Laing.
