We have been contacted by a chap who is looking for information on a watch he has with a Wimborne signature, that being John Spurrier. If you have any info, such as an address, he'd love to know.
He's also looking for info on a Thomas Phippard clock from Poole, a William Randall clock from Wareham, a Selby watch from Wareham and a Pegler watch from Blandford if anyone has addresses for any of them. That group are all around last quarter of the 18th century and first quarter on the 18th. He's also interested in Thomas Baker of Blandford, that one 1690-1720 period.
All info gratefully received!
