[edit] Watchmaker? Silversmith? Sailor?
I have collected together a few sources suggesting different trades of Robert Hubert. Most seem to claim that he was a watchmaker, but some contradict that. I would be grateful if someone could find more to verify he was a watchmaker, as I have currently claimed.

[edit] From Rouen?
I have claimed that Robert Hubert was from Rouen, and cited a source. However, one source, [1], claims that "the young man, who was bound for Rouen, was on board his ship when the fire broke out." Bound to Rouen from where; why did he end up in London? I would be grateful if someone could find more souces to clarify the situation.

[edit] Robert 'Lucky' Hubert???
Your only source for this bizarre nickname: 'Robert "Lucky" Hubert' is the somewhat deficient wikipedia article. Though I could be wrong, it sounds to me like some editor's idea of a bad joke...Colin4C 20:14, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
- lol, agreed. the phrase seems to originate with [2]. This editor no longer seems to be a part of wikipedia. He doesn't cite a source. I can't find sources. I'm removing references to it here and elsewhere. Jameshfisher 21:45, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
