(1) J. Waugh & Son Dublin The Irish Houses of Parliament Speaker's Clock James Waugh was a member of a well-known family of clock makers. He worked in Armagh from 1785 until 1805 when he moved to Dublin. He produced an 'astronomical' clock for use in Armagh Observatory, circa 1793., and assisted Robert Hogg in making an astronomical quadrant with a 35 inch radius (Hogg was later an assistant astronomer at Armagh). In Dublin he produced clocks from 157 James Street under the name 'Waugh & Sons' as well as 'James Waugh' (this latter nomenclature was in operation between 1805 and 1815). From 1820 until 1824 he operated from 24 James Street and, in 1825, moved to 40 Aungier Street. In 1826 a final move took him to 42 Aungier Street. He is known to have made the works for a Longcase Clock 9 feet 8 inches high, by 3 feet 8 inches wide that was in the Irish Houses of Parliament**. Francis Johnston of Kilmore*** MRIA (1760 - 1829) was the second son of William Johnston of Armagh. On the death of his older brother, Richard Johnston of Kilmore (1759 - 1806), without issue, Francis became the head of his family and entitled to the undifferenced Arms, as displayed on the superstructure of the Clock****. The Parliament House was sold in 1803 to the Bank of Ireland for £40,000. The conversion into the Bank's headquarters was started the following year and completed in 1811. Francis Johnston was the architect of the alterations. Between 1807 and 1814 Richard Stewart executed the carvings in the Chapel Royal at Dublin Castle, which had been designed by Francis Johnston and the unusual shape of the shield for the Johnston Coat of Arms, which was added to the Speaker's Clock, is identical in form, to those for the Viceroys of Ireland which Stewart carved in the Chapel Royal, Dublin.

Hamilton, was appointed in July 1790, and as an endowment for the Astronomer, Primate Robinson gave twenty acres of land and the estate of Derrynaught. Several instruments, including a Ramsden transit instrument and meridian circle, a Troughton equatorial telescope and three clocks, were ordered at the Primate's expense. However, owing to the Primate's death before receipt of all the instruments, the two Ramsden instruments never came to Armagh, Compensating for the non arrival of the Ramsden transit instrument an Armagh watchmaker, Mr. James Waugh, constructed one, and observations with it commenced in July 1793 (Stuart 1819). Some results with this instrument were published in the Transactions of the Royal Irish Academy (Hamilton 1810). * **Watch and Clockmakers in Ireland. by William Galland Stuart, Dublin 2000 (published with a grant from the Heritage Council). * ***Kilmore House, Richhill, County Armagh (Johnston IFR) a 3 story Georgian block, given 2 curvilinear Jacobean-style gables and mullioned oriels, between which 3 bays of the original elevation remain as they always were, complete with the astragals in the sash windows; the adjoining elevation also remained Georgian.
