[from above]: He was nominally Theophilus Alexander Blakely but preferred his second name, rarely using his first and signing with just his initials.....Blakely was a Member of the Royal Society of London,the British Association for the Advancement of Science, the Royal Irish Academy, an Honorary Member of the Society of Engineers, the “Smeatonians”, and was a Founding Fellow of the Anthropological Society of London. He was also a vigorous contributor to the debates of the Royal United Service Institution, the military “think - tank” of the day. Socially, he was also a member of the Army & Navy Club, and of the Royal Victoria Yacht Club. ... Sir Richard Burton, the famous explorer and writer, became a friend of Blakely’s in the early 1860s.
