PARTRIDGE or PARTRICH (MILES), bookseller in London, 1613-18; Near Saint Dunstan's Church in Fleet Street. Son of Thomas Partridge of Beison, co. Norfolk, gent. Apprentice to William Holme { HOLME, William ( - 1609) ‹ LBT 07627 › }, stationer of London, for eight years from Christmas, 1604, and took up his freedom January 21st, 1612/3 [Arber, ii. 289; iii.684]. First book entry February 10th, 1615. Amongst Miles Partridge's publications was Beaumont and Fletcher's Scornful Ladie, 1616, and G.
