Bibliography
Business records
Company records Records for company registrations and
relating to companies trading on the stock exchange have not
been studied.
Roberson account holders Roberson Archive, Hamilton Kerr
Institute, Cambridge. The publication by Sally Woodcock (Woodcock
1997) of an index of account holders, 1820-1939, with Charles
Roberson, subsequently Roberson & Miller, Charles
Roberson & Co, and C. Roberson & Co Ltd, makes
this valuable resource available. See index
to the Roberson Archive. The actual Roberson ledgers have
not been examined.
Salerooms References to labelled frames, canvases
and panels in salerooms occasionally derive from information
in published sale catalogues but otherwise through personal observation.
Sun insurance records Sun Insurance Office 1710-1928,
Guildhall Library, London, policy registers (MS 11936). A microfiche
index to Sun policy registers is available for 1775-87, and an
online index for 1808-38 is available through A2A (Access to
Archives, see below) at http://www.a2a.org.uk/.
See also Fire Insurance Records www.history.ac.uk/gh/fire.htm.
Official records
Apprenticeships
Percival Boyd's index,
The Apprentices of Great Britain, covering many apprenticeships,
1710-74, abstracted from records of tax paid on premiums for
apprenticeships, is available at the Society of Genealogists,
the Guildhall Library and elsewhere. Another series, 'London
Apprenticeship Abstracts, 1442-1850', with over 300,000 names
from City Company records, is available through a cooperation
between the Society of Genealogists and the Origins Network website
at www.originsnetwork.com/.
See also the publications by Cliff Webb listed in the Bibliography
below.
BMD "FreeBMD" (Births, Marriages, Deaths)
is an ongoing project to transcribe the Civil Registration index
of births, marriages and deaths for England and Wales, and to
provide free Internet access to the transcribed records; it contains
partial index information for the period 1837-1983 at www.freebmd.org.uk/
. This site has been used extensively in identifying birth
and death dates. "Non-conformist BMD" provides information
on a fee basis from the registers of various non-conformist churches,
1534-1865, at www.bmdregisters.co.uk/
. Other BMD websites, and the original records of births, marriages
and deaths, potentially useful sources of information, have not
been studied.
Censuses Successive censuses were taken on 6 June 1841
and during the period 30 March to 7 April in the censuses for
1851, 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891 and 1901. These are available online
for England and Wales at www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/census/.
In the 1841 census, ages were rounded down to the nearest five.
Another resource, FreeCEN, at www.freecen.org.uk/
aims to provide a free-to-view online searchable database, but
very incomplete, of 19th century UK census returns, with the
useful facility to search by occupation; the coverage for Edinburgh
in 1841 and for St Pancras in London in 1891 is useful.
PCC wills References to wills are to the series of Prerogative
Court of Canterbury Wills, 1384-1858, held by the National Archives.
These cover wills proved (formally approved) by this court, covering
the relatively wealthy individuals living mainly in the south
of England and most of Wales (what was originally the ecclesiastical
province of Canterbury), available on a fee basis at www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/documentsonline/wills.asp
, and free at the National Archives. Wills dating to after 1858
have not been studied.
Proceedings of the Old Bailey A fully searchable online
edition of the largest body of texts detailing the lives of non-elite
people ever published, containing accounts of almost 200,000
criminal trials held at London's central criminal court, 1674-1913,
see www.oldbaileyonline.org/.
Rate books Rate books have not been studied; they have
the potential to provide further information, especially for
18th and early 19th century individuals.
Scotlands People Birth, marriage, death and census records
for Scotland are available on a fee basis at the official source
for genealogical data for Scotland at www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/.
The site also provides access to a fully searchable index of
over 520,000 Scottish wills and testaments, 1500-1901, created
by the Scottish Archive Network, see www.scottishdocuments.com.
Periodicals and newspapers
17th and 18th Century
Burney Newspapers
(collected by the Rev.
Charles Burney) and 19th Century British Library Newspapers
Full-text searchable digital archives of numerous papers
in England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland. Available free in British
Library Reading Rooms, with planned wider online access on subscription,
see www.bl.uk/collections/early/burneydigitisation.
This website is the source for almost all newspaper quotations
except for the Bath Chronicle, the Edinburgh Gazette,
the London Gazette, the Scotsman and The Times,
for which see below.
The Art-Union Periodical published monthly 1839-48.
Initially R. Ackermann was the only colourman to advertise but
he was soon followed by Reeves, Roberson and Winsor & Newton
in 1840 and thereafter by a changing selection of companies,
including framemakers.
The Artist Periodical published monthly from 1927,
examined selectively.
The Artists' Directory Periodical apparently published
annually 1870-1875, The Artists' Directory for June 1870
(copy in British Museum Dept of Prints & Drawings), The
Artists' Directory, 1874 (British Library, PP.2495.bcn, and
other libraries), The Artists' Directory, 1875 (copy:
Jacob Simon).
The Bath Chronicle Extracts for the years 1770-1800,
available at www.bathnes.gov.uk/BathNES/lifeandleisure/leisure/localarchives/georgian/default.htm
The London Gazette and The Edinburgh Gazette A
government journal, published in London since 1665, and in Edinburgh
since 1699, and more consistently since 1793. This is a useful
source for changes in business partnerships and individual bankruptcies.
There are certain gaps in the online coverage at www.gazettes-online.co.uk/AdvancedSearch.aspx?geotype=London,
e.g. for 1796, where some details have been extracted from Maxted.
The Scotsman Available on subscription at http://archive.scotsman.com/
as The Scotsman Digital Archive 1817-1950, with full text
search mechanism.
The Times Available on subscription at www.galeuk.com/times/
as The Times Digital Archive 1785-1985, and free at many reference
libraries. There are inadequacies in the full text search mechanism.
The Year's Art Periodical published annually 1880-1947,
examined up until 1920, compiled late in the year preceding publication.
Initially Newman was the only colourman to advertise but he was
followed by Lechertier Barbe in 1883, and thereafter by a changing
selection of companies.
Telephone books British Phone Books, 1880-1984, Releases
1-3, an online resource useful for establishing business addresses,
available on a fee basis at www.ancestry.com/.
It contains phone books published between 1880, the year after
the public telephone service was introduced, and 1984, from the
historic phone book collection held by BT Archives, providing
near full county coverage for England as well as containing substantial
records for Scotland, Ireland, and Wales.
Trade directories Trade directories are available at the
Guildhall Library, London, and elsewhere on microfilm. Increasingly,
they are being made available on the Internet. Kent's London
Directory, 1794, can be accessed in trancription at www.londonancestor.com/kents/kents-menu.
Numerous pre-1920 English and Welsh directories are reproduced
in the original at the site maintained by the University of Leicester
at www.historicaldirectories.org,
with full-text search mechanism. Directories were often published
around the start of the year, thus recording businesses at the
locations they occupied late in the previous year. In compiling
business addresses, no allowance has been made for this situation.
Whitley papers British Museum, Dept of Prints & Drawings,
volumes of newspaper cuttings and typewritten slips, put together
by William Thomas Whitley (1858-1942), presented to the Museum
in 1943. Whitley was author of Artists and their Friends in
England 1700-1799, 1928, and other books.
Trade cards and catalogues
Banks coll. British Museum, Dept of Prints &
Drawings, collection of trade cards etc, put together by Sarah
Sophia Banks (1744-1818), only sister of Sir Joseph Banks, presented
to the Museum in 1818. Many of these cards were marked with the
year in manuscript, presumably indicating when the card was acquired.
Some cards from other sources have been filed in this sequence
at the British Museum.
Heal coll. British Museum, Dept of Prints & Drawings,
collection of trade cards, put together by Sir Ambrose Heal (1872-1959),
by whom bequeathed to the Museum.
Johnson coll. Bodleain Library, Oxford, collection of
printed ephemera, put together by John Johnson (1882-1956), entered
Library in 1968. Much is available in an excellent searchable
illustrated database online at www.bodley.ox.ac.uk/johnson/johnson.htm.
Trade catalogues The best listings of the catalogues of
the major firms of Reeves, Roberson, Rowney and Winsor &
Newton can be found in Carlyle 2001, Katlan 1987 and Katlan 1992.
Other catalogues, etc, referred to here are acknowledged by collection;
catalogues for which no collection is given belong to the compiler,
Jacob Simon, and are intended as an eventual gift to a public
collection.

usually but not always accurate, and a partial transcript of
the 1881 census, maintained by the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints, at www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/frameset_search.asp.
Many birth and marriage details prior to Civil Registration in
1837 have been derived from this database.
Literature online Over a third of a million full-text
works of poetry, prose and drama in English, available on subscription
at http://lion.chadwyck.com/marketing/index.jsp,
