Robert Cruickshank was a silversmith working in Montreal, Canada in the late 1700s. He ran a silver manufacturing operation which produced a large amount of trade silver to supply the Northwest Company. Many of his pieces survive today and are associated with the Native American fur trade. Lester J. Yoder (donor)
