WILLIAMSON (WILLIAM), printer and bookseller in London, 1571-4; (1) The White Horse, St. Paul's Churchyard, 1571; (2) Dwelling in Distaff Lane, 1572; (3) In St. Paul's Churchyard, 1573-4; (4) At his shop adjoining St. Peter's Church in Cornhill. One of Richard Jugge's { JUGGE, Richard ( - 1577) ‹ LBT 07912 › } apprentices for nine years from February 2nd, 1561/2 [Arber, i. 17']. Admitted a freeman of the Company on April 23rd, 1571 [Arber, i. 447]. There are no entries of separate copies under his name in the Registers, but on January 15th, 1581/2, a large number of copies, including several plays, were assigned over to John Charlewood { CHARLEWOOD, John ( - 1593) ‹ LBT 07132 › }; but it is not clear which of them belonged to William Williamson [Arber, ii. 405-6]. He appears to have succeeded Andrew Hester { HESTER, Andrew ‹ LBT 07705 › } at the White Horse in St. Paul's Churchyard and to have carried on both a printing and bookselling business between 1571 and 1574.
