Holden's Annual London & Country Directory of the United Kingdoms & Wales for the year 1811 Volume 1 lists Robert Rutland working silversmith and spoon maker 13 New Lisle St, Leicester Square.
Re: RUTLAND, Robert (Grimwade p.649-50, 766)
At various trials at the Old Bailey, Robert Rutland gives his address as 13, New Lisle Street, Leicester Square in November 1808, and Lisle Street, Leicester Square in September 1813 and again in January 1824.
During the 1808 trial, Robert Rutland describes himself as 'I was taken dangerousy ill'. Perhaps, given his somewhat early death at the age of 42, that he may have been suffering from a long term illness.
In January 1793, a Robert Rutland appeared at the Old Bailey having been robbed of a large quantity of watches, seals, buckles, and rings, from his premises at 33, Monmouth Street, corner of Stacy Street. These premises are described as a 'Sale Shop', likely that of a retail jeweller, and perhaps this Robert Rutland may perhaps be identified with the Lisle Street Robert Rutland, possibly as his father.
Heal also records a Jonathan Rutland, a silversmith, working at 110, Oxford Street (1790-93) and 114, Oxford Street (1796), again possibly to indentified as part of the same family.
