    Joseph Roberts (who counts as a recognizable name for razor makers from the period), who worked out of Garden Street Sheffield when he was listed in Gales & Martin’s 1787 directory.

    Not to be contrary Roy but that is Roberts not Rodgers. Easy to mix up. I'm still looking myself. Not as much to find on Roberts.
