May I suggest Charles Henry Wilton, who wrote string trios recorded by Jean Pougnet, Frederick Riddle and Anthony Pini? No.1 in A Major is the most attractive and was broadcast from a gramophone record on the Third Programme at 7.55pm on May 27, 1966. I don’t think it has had an airing since.
James Hook
John Marsh
The Earl of Kelly (Thomas Erskine). Yes I know, he was a Scot, but…
The Roseingraves of Dublin (but of English origin), in particular Thomas, who was born in Winchester
John Collett
Thomas Chilcot of Bath
William Smethergell
Why not Handel, who spent most of his working life in London?
And if Handel, then why not Carl Abel, who came to London in his 30s and never left?
PS:
John Blow & Jeremiah Clarke, born in the 17th and just made it into the 18th century, like Daniel Purcell.
Johann Pepusch, another born in Germany who spent most of his working life in London,
and of course Stephen Storace
No John Garth?

Keep up the good work

All good suggestions, I hope to expand the site to include more soon.
