Description: PRICE DROP...This is a beautiful pair of pistols in a newer case, nicely engraved in excellent condition. These were made prior to 1846 in Bath. Here is a portion of the John Clough History. THOMAS CLOUGH, Practical Gun-maker, Fishing Rod, and Tackle Manufacturer. In succeeding the above old-established business, desires to ensure the country gentlemen and sportsmen of West Norfolk and district that all orders with which he may be favored will receive his personal attention and be executed with the utmost care and promptitude, and he trusts that by supplying goods of the best quality and workmanship he will secure a continuance of the support so long enjoyed by the late Mr. Potter. A well-assorted stock of Fishing Rods, Tackle, Cricket and Tennis Goods will be kept, and special attention is given to repairs in this department. The experienced Foreman for many years in the employ of the late Mr. Potter will remain with Mr. Clough.’ Born in about 1830 in Bath, Thomas was the eldest son of John and Martha Clough. John had been born in Liverpool in about 1799 and Martha (b. c1802) came from Bath. They had four children, all born in Bath:- 1) Catherine Martha (b. c1826 – m. Samuel Hayward in 1849 – d.1899/1900 aged 73). 2) Thomas – see below (b. c1830 m. Helen Dyer in 1864 – d.1895, aged 66). 3) George (b. c1832 – d. 1869/70, aged 38). 4) John Robert (b. c1834 – d. 1880, aged 46). John Clough Senior. had a gun-making business in Southgate Street in Bath, which was listed under just his name in 1846 and as ‘Clough & Son’ in 1852, which would be about when Thomas had finished his apprenticeship and joined his father in the business. Meanwhile, John Robert was also learning the trade, and when their father died in 1860, the two siblings came together as ‘Clough Brothers’ with premises at 9, Bond Street, Bath. The partnership lasted until John Robert died in 1880, aged 46.
