Jeremiah Markland was born on October 18, 1693, at Childwall, England.
Markland was educated at Christ's Hospital and Peterhouse, Cambridge. He graduated B. A. in 1713, and M. A. in 1717.
In 1717 Markland wrote some verses in vindication of Addison against Pope's satire. He was also author of a modernisation of Chaucer's "Friar's Tale. " He was prevented by the weakness of his lungs, and probably by conscientious objections to certain doctrines of the church, from becoming a clergyman. He left Cambridge in 1728 to act as private tutor to the son of W. Strode of Punsbourn, Hertfordshire, returning to the university in 1733. At a later date he lived at Twyford, and in 1744 went to Uckfield, Sussex, in order to superintend the education of the son of his former pupil, Mr. Strode. In 1752 he fixed his abode at Milton Court, near Dorking, Surrey, and remained there, living in great privacy.
His works are : Epistola critica (1723); the Sylvae of Statius (1728); notes to the editions of Lysias by Taylor, of Maximus of Tyre by Davies, of Euripides's Hippolytus by Musgrave; editions of Euripides's Supplices, Iphigenia in Tauride and in Aulide (ed. T. Gaisford 1811); Remarks on the Epistles of Cicero to Bruins (1745).
Jeremiah Markland died on July 7, 1776.
