HERBERT (JOHN), (?) bookseller (?) in London, 1598. Son of John Harbert or Herbert of the city of Durham, tailor, apprentice to Paul Conyngton { CONNYNGTON, Paul ‹ LBT 08401 › }, stationer, for nine years from November 1st, 1588 [Arber, ii. 153J. Admitted to the freedom on October 29th, 1597 [Arber, ii. 719]. Herbert began taking apprentices on September 4th, 1598 [Arber, ii. 229J. On November 13th in the same year he entered a book called Itys or three severall boxes of sportinge familiars [Arber, iii. 131]. No copy of this seems to be known, Nothing further is known of this stationer and his address has not been found.
MLT Note: We have followed McKenzie, D.F. (1961) in assuming that John Harbert on p.78 is the same person as John Herbert on p.82. ---
