History
The partnership of Thomas Smith and Thomas Tilson acted as solicitors to St Paul's Cathedral, but also carried on an independent business. These records relate to that business.
According to trade directories, Smith and Tilson were based at 68 St Paul's Churchyard, 1802-1805, and Chapter House, St Paul's, 1806-1809. The partnership does not appear in trade directories before 1802 or after 1809. However, the directory for 1799 contains an entry for Thomas Smith and Richard Stephens Taylor, attornies of Chapter House, St Paul's Churchyard, and the firm of Smith and Company, attornies of Chapter House, St Paul's Churchyard, appears in directories from 1810-17.
