janjcf@sbcglobal.net asked:

we have a black marble mantal clock made by him that has been in our family for over 100 years. We also have a picture of this clock on the mantle in my husbands great grandfathers house with his great grandfathers second wife. You can see the gas fixture to light the lights. If anyone has any idea where I can find this information please let me know.

robert s asked:


I don’t wish to go to an antique store and get nothing. The clock store that looked at it said that the clockworks were the nicest they had seen in a clock of that age. It is a light colored marble which is not as valuable as black. It is a Waterbury. The clock shop said approximately 1891.
