TRIPLET (ROBERT), boukseller and bookbinder in London, 1604-24: Distaff Lane, sign of the Aqua Vite Still near Old Fish Street. Son of Richard Triplett of Hampton Gay, Oxford, husbandman. Apprentice to Thomas Middleton for seven years from June 24th, 1592 { No record found at St.Co., Lavin links him with the Oxford bookseller of this name. } and admitted a freeman of the Company of Stationers on January 17th, 1602/3. [Arber, ii. 181, 734]. Robert Triplet was the compiler and publisher of small pocket books and writing tables containing much valuable information such as tables of weights and measures, values of coinage, etc. One of these is described at some length by Herbert [p. 1762], and copies of two of the writing tables, for the years 1604 and 1611, are preserved at tbe British Museum.
