Talk:Ansonia Clock Company

"Historically, Ansonia Clock Company did not have its roots in Ansonia, the Connecticut town after which it was named, but some 35 miles northeast in the great clockmaking town of Bristol. In 1841, Theodore Terry, nephew of Eli Terry the man who had started the manufacture of inexpensive clocks in the first decade of the 19th century, formed a partnership with one Franklin C. Andrews. The new firm of Terry & Andrews was to tool up and manufacture inexpensive brass clocks." per [1]

Wow. You really do find everything in Wikipedia! As a small boy growing up on a remote farm in north Wales in the 1960s, it was a source of wonder to me that the clock on the dresser in our living room was produced by the Ansonia Clock Company in fabled New York. I remember my father winding it up before going to bed every Sunday night (though the striking mechanism didn't work in my time) and it continued to tell the time perfectly accurately until my parents retired and sold up in 1985. I wonder what became of that clock afterwards. -- Arwel Parry (talk) 20:01, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
