Seth Thomas 1785-1859, American clock manufacturer, b. Wolcott, Conn. In 1812 he sold his partnership in a clock business established by Eli Terry and set up a factory to make metal-movement clocks at Plymouth Hollow, Conn. (renamed Thomaston in his honor c.1860). He also built and operated a mill to roll brass and make wire for his clock factory. The business was continued and expanded by his son, Seth Thomas (1816-88), and the clocks they manufactured became known throughout the world.
