North, Robert jnr (1731-48)
North, Robert jnr, London, upholder (1731–48). Son of Robert North snr and app. to his father 14 June 1723. He was however transferred to John Spicer 19 June 1724 and made free of the Upholders’ Co. by servitude 2 June 1731. On completion of his apprenticeship he appears to have joined his father's business and on 21 July 1731 signed a receipt on the behalf of ‘my Father & self’. No further reference to him after this date, has however been located, and his role in the business is therefore unclear. [GL, Upholders’ Co. records; Herefs. RO, Foley MS F/A III/55]
