Ready family; Biography: There are a series of reproductions in the founding collection obtained from 'Mr Ready' of the British Museum. These were possibly also made by them. There were several restorers from the same family working at the British Museum in the nineteenth and early twentieth century. See Augustus Ready [qv] and William Talbot Ready [qv]. There was also Charles J. Ready (brother of the two previous men) who also worked in the repair and moulding workshop. Also there was R.C.W. Ready (1811-1903) who is described in the British Museum database as: 'Employed primarily as a cleaner and restorer of tablets and small antiquities from Mesopotamia and worked at the British Museum from 1858-1903 (Report to Trustees 26/1/59). He was formerly custodian of the Public Baths at Leeds, then became a tobacconist in Norwich; sold his business and moved to Cambridge where he was employed to make casts of seals attached to documents in the University Library and the College Libraries. He did the same on behalf of the Oxford Colleges. Following the death of John Doubleday (q.v.) and the vacancy of the post of repairer at the British Museum, he applied on the recommendation of his fellow collectors Albert Way (q.v.) and Augustus Wollaston Franks (q.v.). After a brief competition he was appointed in 1858/59. However he was paid by the hour rather than being on the regular payroll, and thus augmented his meagre salary by doing much private work. ... Ready appears to have developed new processes of cleaning and treatment, but kept these processes a family secret shared only with his four sons. ... In 1873 his son Augustus P. Ready (q.v.) joined the Museum to assist his father, and in 1879 they were also joined by another of Robert Ready's sons, William Talbot Ready (q.v.); a third son, Charles Ready, also appears to have been associated with this workshop as his death is recorded in the Trustees' Minutes in 1922.' See http://www.thebritishmuseum.ac.uk/conservation/history.html; Dates: See above

Ridley, H.; Biography: Nothing is known about this collector who seems to have given two items which might be from Queensland or Malaysia. One of the items (possibly both) seems to have been obtained by Pitt-Rivers on 8 May 1876 possibly at an auction. It is just possible that this is Henry Nicholas Ridley (1855-1956) Director of Singapore Botanic Gardens, but he had only just graduated from Oxford at the time and had not yet started at the British Museum.

Roberts, Mr.; Biography: Little is known of this collector who is associated with items from Bonne Bay, Newfoundland. It seems possible that it was one of the Roberts family who built John William Roberts House on the bay. The Roberts were among the first settlers in Woody Point. John William's father John arrived in the community in 1849 with his wife Emma (Decker) and four children. Nine more children followed and many residents today in Woody Point can trace their ancestry back to these pioneers.; Dates: No specific dates known; Source: http://www.heritage.nf.ca/society/rhs/tz_listing/229.html BiographyPRM relationship: Field Collector, Other Owner  Continents: Americas Career: none known Clubs: none known; Collected or donated by: 1883; Source: PRM Relational Museum project

Rollin and Feuardent; Biography: Dealers. According to the British Museum database,'Company, variously known, founded by Claude Camille Rollin (1813-1883), a French dealer in coins, gems and antiquities, and originally active only in Paris. At one point their address was 12 rue Vivienne. Rollin took Felix Feuardent (1819-1907) into partnership and opened a branch at 27 Haymarket, London, in 1867, and later moved into premises at 10 Bloomsbury Street, WC1 (at other times at no. 6). After the death of Rollin (Paris, 1883), the firm continued under the leadership of Feuardent and operated under the name of Feuardent Frères at 4 rue de Louvois, Paris, IV, until about 1953.'
