| From Antiques and Fine Art Magazine Gary Sullivan Antiques: A rare and important early American tall case clock, by Nicholas Blasdel, Amesbury, Massachusetts, circa 1760 |
The Blaisdell/Blasdel family produced nine clockmakers in four generations. I came across this article in the archives written by Rev Roland D Sawyer published in Amesbury Daily News Amesbury, Massachusetts Saturday November 10, 1951.
The Purington family who were Quakers also made clocks https://www.nhhistory.org/object/549446/purinton-jonathan-b-1732-1816
