In 2007 the Ministry of Defence advertised it was considering disposing of some land in Lyneham formerly belonging to William Brind. But I think the MoD actually meant William Brind Miflin. |

Milbrough Miflin, who probably died between 1851 and 1861, may have originally been a Brind (hence the Brind second name for William B Miflin). However, there is no record that I can find of a Milbrough Brind and it is more than possible that John Miflin named his third son after his own mother's family name or some other relative. |
