From Koopman Rare Art website :-
"Robert Hennell 11 (London)
Son of John Hennell, elder brother of Robert Hennell 1, who had returned to Newport Pagnall and continued his grandfather's business, described in the register as draper, Citizen and Goldsmith of London. Robert was apprenticed to his uncle Robert Hennell 8 April 1778. Free 1 June 1785. He was also apprenticed to John Houle (q.v.) engraver and seems to have worked after freedom as such at Windmill Court, Smithfield, very probably executing the fine engraving typical of Robert 1's pieces at the period, until first mark entered as plateworker, in partnership with Henry Nutting, 17 Jun 1808. Address; 38 Noble Lane, Foster Lane. Second mark alone, 3 November 1809. Address; 35 Noble Street. Moved to 3 Lancaster Court, Strand, 28 June 1817. Third mark, 11 August 1820. Fourth mark, 28 January 1826. Retired 1833 when he announced in the London Gazette, 25 May, that his son Robert would take over his mark. Robert 11's second mark appears on the coffin-plate of George 111 (illustrated, Percy Hennell, op. cit. under David 1)."
