J Davis & Sons - a boxwood and brass inclinometer level, by J Davis & Sons, All Saints, Derby, with compass, protractor hinge, two levels and scale, cased John Davis first came to Derby for varying periods before moving on again, mainly to Cheltenham. He was in the town in 1830, again in 1831, in 1835-36, on and off during the period 1837-1843, before settling permanently behind 22, Iron Gate, Derby in 1844; the firm is still flourishing. John Davis (1811-1873) was a member of an extended family of instrument makers of Jewish descent who, like John in the years prior to 1844, mainly worked peripatetically. Some members of the family - John, senior, David, William and a female relative - had attended Spencer's academy in Green Lane, run by the philosopher Herbert Spencer's father and grandfather, during the 1780s and 1790s.. However, the description on the instrument John Davis & Son/All Saints' Derby tells us that it was made after John Davis's eldest son was taken into partnership in 1873, and Henry took over on his father's death, retaining the style ÒJohn Davis & son/DerbyÓ which was current until the Company style changed in 1898 to ÒJohn Davis (Derby) LtdÓ. The firm built a new works called All Saints' works in Amen Alley opening them in November 1875, and the use of the style ÒAll Saints', DerbyÓ on this instrument confirms that it was made within eighteen months or two years of that date, when the firm was keen to emphasise its new premises. Thus the instrument was probably made 1876-78
Derbyshire Coal Mining Interest - a 19th century lacquered brass Casartelli's Patent Mining Dial, the 12.5cm silvered dial inscribed Casartelli's Patent Dial, No. 225, J. Casartelli, Manchester, Arabic numerals, engraved with a compass rose, set with two levels, folding frame, screw fitting cover, 30cm wide, fitted mahogany case, leather outer case, c. 1852 - 1896 The firm of Casartelli was founded by Lewis (Ludovico) Casartelli, born Tavernerio, Nr. Como, Italy 1784, d. 1860. He set up as an instrument maker in Liverpool in 1812. He came to UK as the nephew and assistant of Baptist (Battisto) Ronchetti, also from Tavernerio, who set up in Manchester in the same trade. From 1845 the business was run by Casartelli's two sons, Anthony John and Joseph Lewis. The latter married his cousin Harriet Ronchetti in 1852 and moved to 43, Market St., Manchester that year to take over the highly regarded Ronchetti business which he ran until his death in 1900, having been joined in partnership by his son Joseph Henry in 1896, who succeeded him until 1925. Thus the instrument dates from between 1852 & 1896, when the dial would have been marked Casartelli & Son/Manchester. The heavy-duty leather case is signed beneath the flap ÒE. Burrows, saddler, HeanorÓ. This refers to Elijah Burrows who set up at 18, Church Street, Heanor, between 1891 and 1895. The instrument was consigned to Edward Mundy, Shipleygate Station via the Midland Railway (MS inscription, right corner of label) The Mundy family had been of Shipley Hall since the early 18th century, and were major coal owners in the area, Shipley Colliery being a very large concern on the estate, served by the canal and later the MR. In the early 1890s - for this has to be the date of the case, if not the instrument, which can only be dated between 1852 and 1896 by its signature - the Shipley estate was owned by Alfred Edward Mundy (1849-1920) who succeeded to it on the death of his father, another Alfred in 1877. The family sold the hall and estate to the colliery company in 1923 and moved out; the colliery was nationalised in 1948 and the NCB demolished the hall shortly afterwards due to the structure being undermined by the coal extraction.
