| Notes | Contrary to the identification provided in the Yale site's database, this image cannot be of Barry Edward O'Meara. In Britain, a person with a D.D. is addressed as "Dr." Barry Edward O'Meara did not have a D.D., was not in holy orders, did not preach, and did not seek to be appointed bishop. In 1809 he was serving as surgeon in the military, where he would have been addressed as "Mr. O'Meara," as surgeons are addressed in Britain even today.
