Hibbert, Purrier and Horton : ウィキペディア英語版 | Hibbert, Purrier and Horton Hibbert, Purrier and Horton was a London-based merchant and shipping business, initially founded in 1770,〔Hall ''et al'', p.210.〕 which was also extensively involved in the slave trade during the late 18th and early-mid 19th century. A partnership (its personnel and name changed several times), it was the primary trading vehicle for successive generations of the Hibbert family's business interests in the West Indies. ==Origins== Manchester-based linen draper Robert Hibbert (1684-1762)〔Hall ''et al'', p.207.〕 had three sons, two of whom settled in Jamaica and established extensive sugar plantations: Thomas Hibbert (1710-1780) travelled to Jamaica in 1734; John Hibbert (1732-1769) lived in Jamaica from 1754 until his death.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.georgehibbert.com/hibbertsjam.html )〕 The third son, Robert, succeeded his father as manager of the Manchester business. Several of Robert Jr's sons also joined the family business, with Thomas Hibbert (1744-1819) entering into partnership with London merchants John Purrier and Thomas Horton in 1770.〔 His brother, a third generation Robert Hibbert (1750-1835) also joined the partnership, as did, in 1780, George Hibbert (1757-1837) who eventually rose to head the firm, which had offices at 9 Mincing Lane.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 HIBBERT, George (1757–1837), of Clapham, Surr. )〕〔(An alphabetical List of the Names and Places of Abode of the Directors of Companies, Persons in Public Business, Merchts., and other eminent Traders in the Cities of London and Westminster, and Borough of Southwark ).
