Sidney Hall (1788 - 1831)

A London engraver from fl. 1817 to 1831 who worked at first from 18 Strand, and moved to Bury street Bloomsbury in 1819. He engraved general atlases and separate maps for various authors and publishers. Upon his early death - he was only in his 40s - Hall's business was inherited and continued by his wife, Selina Hall.
