  note: "Founded in 1813 by Thomas Payne (1752-1831) and Henry Foss; Thomas's nephew John Thomas Payne, succeeded him in the firm about 1825. The firm closed in 1850 (a catalogue was issued that year, announcing their retirement from business) [J. Lancaster].  See David Fallon, \"'Stuffd up with books': the bookshops and business of Thomas Payne and Son, 1740–1831\", in History of Retailing and Consumption, v. 5, no. 3 (2019), pp. 228-245 (published online 20 Dec. 2019; https://doi.org/10.1080/2373518X.2019.1703322; requires subscription to read the article)."
