Markwick was born in London around 1662 and was made free of the Clockmakers Company by patrimony in 1692. His father, James Markwick Senior, was a prosperous horologist and his mother, Hannah Gilpin, was the daughter of another prosperous London horologist, Edmund Gilpin, who was also James Markwick Senior's master. About four years after gaining his freedom, Markwick Jr. took over his father's workshop and trade. Around this same time, he appears to have married Catherine Carleton; the couple would go on to have at least 11 children, though only two, Thomas and Catherine seem to have survived childhood. Robert Markham became a member of the Curriers company in 1700, likely having been born around 1680, in London. His father Richard, also a Currier, died in 1715, and left Robert half of all his wealth, which included jewels and seemingly government trade contracts, the other half going to Richard's wife. Robert Markham appears to have entered into partnership with James Markwick Junior around 1725. Robert also married Catherine Markwick, though whether this was before or after 1725 is unknown. On their wedding day, James Markwick apparently gave his daughter and son-in-law £1,000. James Markwick died in 1729, leaving his son-in-law one-third of all his property. Markham continued to advertise as 'Markwick Markham', seemingly throughout his career. He and Catherine had three children, Elizabeth, James, and Anne. When Markham died in 1741, it appears that one of the Markham's continued the business, entering into partnership with Francis Perigal, the name being changed to 'Markwick, Markham, & Perigal'. It is not known which of the Markhams continued the trade, as none are recorded as clockmakers. The partnership with Perigal was dissolved around 1751, and various other partnerships were entered into. 'Markwick' remained in the shop's title until about 1820. The shop ceased trading around 1851, at that point being known as 'Markham Borrell'.Despite the firms many iterations, their main customer base seems to have been for export to the Ottoman Empire. Most of the timepieces known by them feature Turkish numerals, including a lantern clock. This suggests that this connection to the Ottoman Empire began quite early in the partnership, though exactly when remains unknown.Related LiteratureVictoria and Albert Museum (2003) Watch.

A Rare and Interesting Late 17th Century Thirty Hour Original Carved Oak 'Coffin' Cased Longcase Clock, unsigned, circa 1695, the original carved oak case with a flat top pediment, hood with pierced front and side frets, trunk door with carved outer borders and two central recessed floral carved panels, 9-inch square brass dial with a silvered Roman numeral chapter ring, engraved dial centre, single hand, crown and cherub spandrels, four pillar movement with an anchor escapement and outside countwheel striking on a bell 189cm highThis clock was purchased from Brian Loomes and is illustrated in his article on his website on Archive, page 57. This article mentions that this is a very rare example of an original carved oak case and typical of the early years of longcase clock making and is the same form of case to the lantern clock early cases. It is also noted that only a small amount of these 'coffin' form cases survive and it is also very rare to see a case like this with its original carving from the late 17th Century, which is thought only a handful are known today.Original carved case with good colour and has a nice patina to the surfaces, case with some minor chips in parts to the edges and general wear due to age, dial is discoloured, movement looks complete but is dirty. With pendulum and one weight.

A late 17th century brass lantern clock, unsigned, the strapped bell over acorn finials, dolphin frets, tulip engraved central dial with central alarm dial, weight driven movement with bob pendulum, 40 cm high x 17 cm wide.Provenance: The contents of The Birches, Kingston-upon-ThamesThe clock has obviously had running repairs over the years but for the most part is period, the bell is a replacement and the alarm feature does not show any increments on the central dial or dial point also the rear spurs/pikes are missing from the back feet. I have looked for foundry marks on the wheel work but can not see anything that might point to a particular maker.The chain is a replacement for the original jute rope.Please bear in mind that this clock although seemingly intact may require work to make good as is the case with any old mechanical device.
