Marcie A google search for clockmakers in Lutterworth brought up this site which actually names him: www.clockswatches(.)com/libc.htm. Sorry - just realised you need to pay a nominal subscription to view it although you can see the name - actually William Corrall of Lutterworth - in a list. It's only when you click on the name that it says you need to subscribe. There's also a clockmakers forum where you could post a message - you'll find that by doing a google search for clockmakers.
