Publishers
All of Beethoven's publishers, even if he was close friends with them. Likewise all publishing house employees and representatives of publishing houses, e.g. Georg August von Griesinger as correspondent of Breitkopf & Härtel, but not banking houses through which Beethoven handled international business mail (these under the legal persons), but musicians whom Beethoven asked to establish publishing house contacts, such as Johann Peter Salomon in London.
