DESSERANS (JOHN), bookseller in London, 1566-76. A native of France, who took out letters of denization in this country on April 26th, 1566. In the returns of aliens made in 1576 he was described as servant to Robert Cambier, St. Anne's, Blackfriars. Christopher Plantin got Desserans and Vautrollier { VAUTROLLIER, Thomas ( - 1587) ‹ LBT 08628 › } to take up an agency for him in London in 1567, but the arrangement only lasted for about a year. [M. Rooses, Christophe Plantin, p. 258; Worman, Alien Members, p. 16.] John de Sheron { SHERON, John de ‹ LBT 30046 › }, servant to Thomas Hacket { HACKET, Thomas ‹ LBT 30043 › } in 1564, may be the same man.
MLT Note: - agent to Christopher Plantin 1567 - may the same person as John de Sheron, servant to Thomas Hacket in 1564.
