Description

Chauncey Jerome (1793-1868) was a Clockmaker in the early 1800s. He made a fortune selling his clocks. Jerome began his career in Waterbury, making dials for long-case clocks (grandfather clocks). Jerome learned what he could about clocks; particularly clock cases, and then went to New Jersey to make seven-foot cases for clocks. By 1837 Jerome's company was selling more clocks than any of his competitors. Jerome had made a historic contribution to his industry when he substituted brass works for wooden works. This is the story of Jerome's life as a clock maker.
