Paul Whitehead (1710-74), satirist in the vein of Alexander Pope who also organised events such as a mock Masonic procession along the Strand which was depicted in a satirical print. By the 1750s Whitehead lived at the elegant Colne Lodge on the north side of Twickenham Common. At this time his friends included the painters Francis Hayman and George Lambert, while his portrait was painted by Gainsborough (now lost). Whitehead's last bequest was his heart to his patron Dashwood, now Lord Le Despencer, with £50 for a marble urn in which it could be placed in Dashwood's mausoleum at West Wycombe. The urn containing the heart (shown here) was ceremoniously deposited in the mausoleum at West Wycombe on 16 August 1775 but was later stolen by a tourist.

Charles Whitlaw, a Scottish horticulturist, emigrated to North America in 1794 and spent about two decades collecting botanical specimens, some of which are preserved in the herbarium at the National Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin, Dublin. On returning to Britain, he was proposed for election as a Fellow of The Linnean Society of London, but was black-balled. He established ''patent medicated vapour baths'' in which he employed various North American plants with reputed medicinal properties. Claiming to be able to cure diseases such as scrofula, Whitlaw outraged the medical establishment and he was branded a charlatan and a quack.
