| FR Co. Director | 06.1908 - 1921?? |
Born Bristol 1860.
Joined FR Company board in June 1908 at which time he lived in Newport, Mon. He died there, in 1938.
A stockbroker by trade, it became apparent quickly that he was only interested in the share price.
Arranged to employ C. D. Phillips also from Newport, to assess the situation at Boston Lodge
The report, which has not survived, was simply recorded as "noted" in the board minutes in May 1909
He sold a large block of shares to the group headed by Henry Joseph Jack, Evan R. Davies, and Sir John H Stewart - i.e. what became the WHR group.
He may have had a connection with John Graves Livingston as in 1881 they both lived in Westbury on Trym. At that time Robjent was an accountant.
