Armed Robbery
Croom
County Limerick
1783.
We are always interested in social history such as the above especially when named guns/pistols
are noted. Unfortunately, in this robbery the fact that a gun and pistols were used is the only relevant
details applicable to this study.
Watch collectors could be interested in the reference to Samuel Atkins. London?
Samuel Atkins is recorded in Baillie, G. H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as an 'eminent' maker born in 1697 and working from Temple Bar until his death in 1768.
