John Robertson II & John Walton went into partnership between October 1811 and December 1820.  This partnership is interesting as it started with John Robertson seeing himself as the head of the partnership.  Gradually Robertson’s influence declined along with his financial affairs until by 1820 John Walton had taken over.  John Robertson II was declared bankrupt in February 1821.
