Occupation Interests / Re: Watch Makers in Clerkenwell
« on: Monday 07 January 08 23:55 GMT (UK)  »
Thanks for the information about my Langford relatives.

Also for 'munchie' who is interested in the Healy family in Clerkenwell.  In looking for 'my lot' I found a marriage between John Langford b.1778 and Susan Healy on 24 October 1803 at St John's in Hackney (not far from Clerkenwell). So it may be worth checking different spellings.  It may be a conincidence but probably as watch makers they may have known each other.

I have just found this site and have several watch makers in my family. If somebody could look them up for me it would be appreciated.

John Langford b.1792- watch maker in Clerkenwell, London, addresses are Masons Place 1841 census, and Vincent Terrace in 1851.

His sons all went on to become watch makers in Clerkenwell and in Golden Lane, Cripplegate.
Thomas Langford b. 1821
James b. 1826
Henry b. 1834

thanks
sam
