Robert SHEPPARD d.1719?
Books
The books of "Robert Sheppard Esq; an eminent counsellor" (who has not been further identified), and those of "a learned physician", both lately deceased, were sold by retail sale in London, beginning 23 February 1720. No catalogue survives, but the sale was advertised in the Daily Post and Post Boy as "consisting of a very valuable collection of common and statute law, physick, surgery, mathematicks, voyages, travels, books of antiquity, medals, divinity, history, lives, poetry, architecture, &c, in Engliah, Latin, Italian, French, and Spanish, &c. with several law and other manuscripts, in folio, quarto and octavo".
