The Clocks of William Hickcox | Russ Oechsle

The Clocks of William Hickcox - Case Maker of Watertown, CT and North Bridgewater, NY. Hosted by Cog Counters Chapter 194
Russ details the life and distinctive clocks of case maker Wm. Hickcox of Watertown, CT, and North Bridgewater, NY. In the wooden movement clock era, there were likely hundreds of case makers working in obscurity, and Hickcox surely was one. But a combination of unique style cues and a handful of distinctive clocks made after his migration to upstate New York open a window into his activities and reveal a number of Connecticut “makers” to whom he may have supplied cases.
